I saw a similar situation …somewhere. The previous owner switched the bleeder valve and the inlet hose, and it was working when I saw it.

I have bled a ‘hose higher’, not a Metropolitan, by loosening the inlet hose and using it as the “bleeder valve.”  Bill

Because BMC wisely (?) decided to place the front brake bleeder screws 5" _below_ the hose connection so they're near impossible to bleed out .

Still no joy , sigh .

Usually there's a few (like three) Mets there , this year not one .

The show was TERRIFIC .
