You don't need the engine running, I always start with the bleed nipple furthest away from the inlet pipe.

No engine reqd One of those Eazibleed kits is worth its weight in gold for the job though.......... i've got one you connect to the front tyre and it uses the tyre pressure to push the fluid home Saves a lot of fannying about...... just remember to pump your tyre back up after though

Always start with the furthest bleed nipple from the master cylinder mate. So passenger rear caliper first.

Same with the ap's start with the outside bleed nipple

Iam sure they self bleed ignition on open the brake calliper nipple push the brake pedal release and they sort themselves out
