I am assuming that...

    brakes need to warm up

    I'm finishing a rebuild and partial restoration, i replaced all my hoses, my system was completely dry, the car still has no engine in it so I haven't used the brakes, If it's better to replace it though, I might go ahead and do so, or I'll just wait until I have to replace my pads...

    Whats the difference with Arps ?

    And it is also why you have to use the torque wrench properly, and let it click at the end of the stroke, not the beginning

    general questions about my 86.5, what to do and how to do it.

    Because it could escape and get into other parts of the cooling system and cause a heat pocket? And if after you bleed it, the problem comes back, you know you have something to worry about. It's like you're ignoring a diagnosis tool imo.
