brake line questions.
So I had my techna fit brake lines installed today and system bleed with an air pump of sorts. He started in the rear ending at the MC. The pedal is more squishy than before. I called acura and they said it doesn't matter where you begin but states the manual calls for FR FL RR RL. he then says his techs start wherever and it's fine. Can anyone confirm the correct sequence and if it should be done by hand or if the air pump is safe? Bit confused as to why it feels.softer.

Here are a few pics of the lines. As you can see the rear oem line has the bracket attached and the new lines bracket is not compatible as I believe it's a universal.fit. the install was really simple and hard braking feels more solid. Brake pedal feels soft on light braking. Going to bleed the old manual way and see if it helps.

I believe the old school way is still the best. Start with the caliper the furthest away from the master cylinder. Passenger rear of course. Then do the drivers rear, passenger front and then drivers front. Make sure you keep topping off the master cylinder.

You should fabricate some type of bracket for the rear set to prevent metal fatigue on the solid brake lines.
