[s-cars] Brake Bleeder Kit

[Mark Strangways]

I use something a bit simpler, but has some drawback's.
I have an adapter that I made that fits over the reservoir, and connects to
regulated shop air.
I set the regulator at 20 psi or so and leave it there.

Problem 1, no additional fluid gets added. Problem 2, I don't really like to
expose the fluid to that much air.
But I have never had any issues either way.
