Wedging the pedal down forces the air back into the fluid under pressure, when the heat is back in the fluid it will reappear and brakes fade.
So where does this bit go then ?

That's ecactly what I did. Took off the drums and there's 3 torq bolts and the lot come off, backplate, shoes cylinders all at once, so easy!
