Great write up, but I have a question about how to start the pressure bleed.

When you pressure bled the system, does a lot of air get in initially from the empty hose going from the pressure tank to the master cylinder? It seems that would happen or did you top off the MC and then pump some fluid into the tube to remove all/most of the air? Looking to pressure bleed my system this weekend and have been wondering about this part (how to start the bleed).

I agree with those who say to replace pads when you replace rotors. Might as well do it all while you've got it apart.
