The Bleeders Will Open Counter Clockwise, Just The Same As Removing a Bolt. Make Sure You Put Some Penetrating Spray On Them If They Are Feeling Real Tight ( not WD-40 ) A Good Brand Also Use A 6 Point Socket, Or Wrench And Take Your Time. The bleed valve is turned COUNTER-CLOCKWISE to bleed air from the brake lines. You'll need someone to press the brake pedal as someone else turns the valve to let air/brake fluid out. Once the pedal is down as far as it will go, turn the valve back closed, then the pedal should be let back up. Repeat that process until the brake pedal is firm. Make sure you keep the brake fluid reservoir full.

To bleed brakes, you typically begin by opening the bleeder valve on the brake caliper in a counter-clockwise direction. This allows air and old brake fluid to escape. Be sure to close the valve by tightening it in a clockwise direction once fresh fluid starts to flow. Repeat the process for each brake caliper in the correct sequence to ensure all air is removed from the system.
