Brake bleeding help...



So what can I do?  Would bleeding only three brakes be a bad idea?  Would air in the broken one ever come out?
Suggestions welcome.  Thx!

But I plan on swapping pads/discs/lines in the near future, and was wondering - would a power brake bleeder eliminate the troubles I would have with trying to bleed the system?  How, and more importantly, how good do these work?  Worth it ($44)?  Thx!
