Of course just as I put all the panel and cowls back on I jumped in to run the engine and both brakes went to the floor. No amount of pumping pressurised the brakes.

So before I go and pull the side panels off, is it possible to back bleed the brakes easily and avoid pulling off the side panels...???

Anyone with experience can help?
