so, bleeder open, pedal down, close bleeder, pedal up. pause, wait AT LEAST 10 seconds. then repeat until all the air is out.
the reason for this, is the multi-pump method will turn large air pockets(bubbles) into very small, even microscopic bubbles. these are VERY hard to get out of the system. they will adhere to the inside of the hose and just stick there.

This is always the preferred way to do it.
