yes start furthest away, if you are not using a bleed kit get your mate to pump the pedal while you release the nipple, when air stopps coming out close the nipple and pump some more, then oped the nipple again( while pedal is being pushed) and close nipple

keep doing this untill all the air is out

best way is to get a tube that you can fit over the bleed nipple so you can see the air bubbles easily!

the air bleed kits are one of the BEST tools ever!!! bleeding brakes is a cnut of a job without it imho.

go to a garage and have them pressure bled, you will not beleive the difference over a bleeding kit!
