Being an OLD mechanic, I still remember the old Chrysler products cars, and their unusual set up on wheel cylinders, they had two, one at the top, and one at the bottom, each working only one shoe. The only way to bleed those, was to bleed them backwards, hook your bleeder to the top one, and loosen the screw, and then force the fluid back to the master cylinder, I've used everything from a turkey baster, to a plastic bottle, upside down, to let it gravity feed back to the master. The master cyl size is useful in controlling how much pressure you apply to the wheels, and give you better feel of how much brake you are applying, too small a master, lots of pedal travel, and locking up the brakes, too big a master, too much pressure needed, but also better feel, and a lot less pedal travel. I like the bigger master myself, it almost feels like you don't have much brake, but you do, just need to apply more foot! Bob
