How to Bleed the Brakes on a 1967 Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow

1. Park the car on a level surface and turn off the engine.

2. Locate the brake fluid reservoir. It is located in the engine compartment, on the passenger side of the car.

3. Remove the cap from the brake fluid reservoir.

4. Attach a brake bleeding kit to the bleeder screw on the rear right wheel.

5. Open the bleeder screw and allow the brake fluid to flow out of the system.

6. Continue to pump the brake pedal until the fluid that is coming out of the bleeder screw is clear and free of bubbles.

7. Close the bleeder screw and repeat steps 4-6 for the rear left wheel, front right wheel, and front left wheel.

8. Top up the brake fluid reservoir with new brake fluid.

9. Test the brakes by applying them firmly. The pedal should feel firm and the car should stop smoothly.

Note: It is important to bleed the brakes in the correct order to ensure that all of the air is removed from the system. If you do not bleed the brakes in the correct order, the brakes may not work properly and could cause an accident.
