Put it into gear (1st or 2nd) whilst it's off, turn the key with a light touch on the throttle and off you go.

Mine popped on the accord about 18 months ago, I had to drive it 8 miles through stop start traffic to get it home.

Once home it was a 20min job to swap it. I bled it on my own with the bleed valve slightly open, and a tube on the end sat in a bottle at the other with some fluid in. Then you just have to sit in the car and pump until enough fluid has been drawn through, close up the valve and your done.

Aaand DONE. :mrgreen:

Those special brake line spanners helped a lot.
Bleeding was easy too.
Used silicone grease on the rubber to keep it protected and halfrogs comma cc moly grease.
