Re: Best tool for brake bleeding? (Koz)
Pressure bleeding is what I finally did. Tried everything else. My wife refuses to go to the garage anymore. Got a used pressure bleeder on line for about ~60. ddo a search for pressure bleeders. The PVC works as well, but the pressure bleed is a no brainer. For the top of the mc, a flat plat with two connectors to your bleeder with two clamps wortks fine with the bleeder. Just my two cents.
I also used the "speed bleeders" They have a tendancy to leak at the threads when you open them. As they do this, I have replaced with old fashioned ones. With a pressure bleeder you don't need them anyway.

Re: Best tool for brake bleeding?
While the PVC pipe worked better than gravity feeding I like gagets. I have the single reserve cover/double cover. Are all GM single reserve covers the same? I know I could use a piece of steel and some clams but I don't have that either so if I have to purchase the steel a used cover might cost the same and make a better fit. BTW, what's a new cover cost? Any ideas?
