Speed Bleeder Screws
Anyone using these? If so, are you pleased? I normally do the bleeding alone, so looks like a more efficient way than the cup and tube with lots of brake fluid. Thanks in advance.

Yup, I use them, they're very easy to use. Unless you have a second person, you can't see whether there are bubbles in the fluid though. My solution is the "brute force" method of using tons of fluid until there is little doubt.

I have the speed bleeders, but if you have alot of air in the brake system it will take awhile to bleed it. It took me the last three days to get my brakes working again. I replaced the calipers pistons. Finially I made a cheapie speeder bleeder, lexan plate and my bicycle tire pump, and the system was bled in about 20 minutes.
