Alright, to be honest, if you're having any doubts about bleeding brakes it's best to let somebody else do it or at least assist you. You always want to start at the furthest wheel from the master cylinder which will be the right rear, then to the left rear, then the right front and finish with the left front. The best way is to get a buddy to pump up the brake pedal for you and have him hold down on the pedal as you open the individual bleeder valves on each brake caliper or drum depending on application. Have him tell you when the pedal goes to the floor after you've opened the bleeder and then close the bleeder before he pumps the pedal again. You want to do this possibly a few times at each wheel until there is a steady stream of brake fluid with no air coming out before you move to the next one. Once you've done it the first time it's easy but don't jeopardize your life or anybody else's if you have any doubts.

You cannot say always start with the left rear any more? Please get a shop manual follow the bleeding procedure. First question I have to ask what was done to allow air into the brake system? Condition of the rubber brake hoses almost 19 years old? My service manuals only go back to 1994 on this Lap top. Being a Nissan Master technician I always look up the car's specific bleeding procedure before opening up bleeders. Watch out rusted in bleeders should be soaked with wd-40 overnight.
