I saw a reference some time ago about a special tool or technique to use on the combination valve when bleeding the rear brakes. Also, I picked up a new combination valve a long time ago and this seems a good time to install it. Any problems to watch for?
Thanks,

If I recall that tool is shown in one of the shop manuals.

Maybe you could just use a small bar clamp.



Someone also mentioned you should lightly tap
on the combination valve to help force out
trapped air.
