I used Gunson Eezibleed pressure-method (from spare tyre), so the air didn't get in. Thank you for the tip!
I'm just worried the old fluid mixing with new, and the amount of rust/particles that I saw while bleeding other brakes (especially left-hand-side rear!) - that could still remain in the system. When I will eventually remove the wheel (at tyres' shop), will try to re-bleed the remaining wheel, hope I will not have to re-bleed the whole system again.
Quote:i snapped a bleed nipple off on my old 106 and i bled it using the brake hose itself but i was using a machine and not having to pump the brakes so not sure if it will work...
How did you reseal the snapped nipple?
