PRESSURE BLEEDING teh brakes??
Hey ALL 
I just purchased a pressure bleeder from MAMW. This looks like a great way to bleed the brakes and completly change the fluids without to much problem.
Does anyone have any experience or tips before I dig in to the vert??

The Motive Brake Bleeder is great!
My tip is to be very sure that all the connections are tight. Follow the instructions regarding the trial pressurization with air BEFORE doing it with brake fluid.
You can hear the air leaking out of any bad connections, as compared to having brake fluid squirting all over the place (I know!).

You don't need speed bleeders with this pump. You do have to move the ECM out of the way to connect the cover to the master cylinder.
About half full will flush the old juice out. Make sure the new fluid has no bubbles. The instructions are clear. Start with the farthest line and end with the closest to the mc. it's the very best way to bleed your system
