I read over the article on the corral about bleeding the brake system ( http://www.corral.net/tech/maintenance/brakebleed.html ) and wanted to know if I will need any kind of special tool to open and close the bleeder valve? Also, I havn't had a chance to go look over the front and rear brakes yet so where should the bleeder valves be? It is a 90 LX btw.

the bleeder screw on the fronts are right on the caliper.

the rears are right in about the middle of the drum.
they are 5/16" i think??? closed wrench will do it.
