Speed Bleeders?
« on: October 12, 2010, 09:37:46 am »
Anyone here using them?  Do they work as advertised?  Seems like a good alternative to the old fashioned method, I thought the wife & I were going to need marriage counseling after the last go round  ;D

I don't use them. The way bleeders sieze up and break as it is it always seemed like a worthless invention.

You can bleed them by yourself. Just route the bleeder hose upward before routing it down to a catch can. That way you just pump the pedal and the air will bleed right out. Just keep an eye on your master cylinder reservoir to make sure it doesn't get too low while you are pumping the pedal.
