    as above Dom,
    best way to go is buy a BIG bottle of brake fluid
    undo the nipple on the passenger rear
    pump ALL the fluid out (into a container) - just keep pumping the pedal and keep going for a bit after the Master Cylinder is empty

    when your happy, add new fluid
    keep pumping
    when thats empty
    fill up again, and get a mate to help you bleed the brakes properly
    none of this Supercrap "self bleeding kits"
    get a mate on the spanner
    3 pumps on the pedal, holding pedal on the third pump - let the fluid out - pedal goes to floor, mate locks bleeder nipple, pump again, and again and again
    (I always go for 3 or 4 times per wheel, until new clean fluid is coming out )

    ALWAYS start at the nipple furthest away from Master Cylinder
    so
    passenger rear
    drivers rear
    passenger front
    drivers front

    if your getting AIR or crappy old fluid - keep going until its clean new fluid with NO air
