   A brake bleed screw is normally mounted at the highest point on each cylinder or caliper. There are five main methods of bleeding: [1] The pump and hold method, the brake pedal is pressed while one bleed screw at a time is opened, allowing air to escape.

The booster works by pulling the air out of the booster chamber with a pump or other vacuum source (typically the engine's intake manifold [1]), creating a low-pressure system ...

   The driver's brake pedal simply controls a valve to bleed pressure into the brake units at the wheels, rather than actually creating the pressure in a master cylinder by depressing a piston. This form of brake is analogous to an air brake system but with hydraulic fluid as the working medium rather than air.
