Going to run fresh fluid thru my brakes this weekend. All is working
well but it's time for new stuff.

The Maintenance Manual shows a tool for holding the "button" on the
Combination Valve closed while bleeding the system. I don't remember
ever doing that before but it can't be a bad thing if the Big Book of
GMC says to do it. An important thing or just a niggling detail..?

FWIW, I'm not going to use a power bleeder. I'm going to put a block
under the pedal so it can't be pushed beyond the normal range of
motion.. Always had bad experiences when those old pistons seals are
allowed to get into new territory inside that MC bore.
