I did a quick search of my personal archive going back a few months(4277

messages) and found nothing on this subject.



I've got one of those "one-man" kits; a vacuum pump, a flimsy plastic jar

with inlet+outlet pipes, and a little rubber hose with a metal surround

that looks like it's designed to hold on to the bleeder screw.



I would assume one connects this to the bleeder screw(after cleaning of

course), loosens said screw, and pumps away until clear fluid results,

topping off resevoir as needed, right?

==oooo==
Brett: good idea, but common experience on the list is that you can't pull the
fluid as well as you can push it using a homemade pressure bleeder device.
Two procedures from archives listed on my web page under brakes.
