air bleeding TOYOTA SUPRA 1995 Service Repair Manual

4. CHECK PEDAL RESERVE DISTANCE
Release the parking brake.
With the engine running, depress the pedal and measure the
pedal reserve distance, as shown.
Pedal reserve distance at 490 N (50 kgf, 110.2 lbf):
w/o TRAC: More than 72 mm (2.83 in.)
w/ TRAC: More than 70 mm (2.76 in.)
If the reserve distance is incorrect, troubleshoot the brake
system.
BRAKE BOOSTER OPERATIONAL TEST
1. OPERATING CHECK
(a) Depress the brake pedal several times with the engine off
and check that there is no change in the pedal reserve
distance.
(b) Depress the brake pedal and start the engine. If the pedal
goes down slightly, operation is normal.
2. AIR TIGHTNESS CHECK
(a) Start the engine and stop it after 1 or 2 minutes. Depress the
brake pedal several times slowly. If the pedal goes down
farthest the 1st time, but gradually rises after the 2nd or 3rd
time, the booster is air tight.
(b) Depress the brake pedal while the engine is running, and
stop the engine with the pedal depressed. If there is no
change in the pedal reserve travel after holding the pedal for
30 seconds, the booster is air tight.
BRAKE SYSTEM BLEEDING
HINT: If any work is done on the brake system or if air in the
brake lines is suspected, bleed the system of air.
NOTICE: Do not let brake fluid remain on painted sur-
faces. Wash it off immediately.

tem, bleed the air out of the TRAC system.
1. INSPECT BATTERY POSITIVE VOLTAGE
Battery positive voltage:
