Default Clutch Bleeding

I have had poor luck getting all the air from the system.I used mighty vac, manual etc.So someone on the forum suggested a Phoenix bleeder.It arrived yesterday.I raised the car high enough to get under,this also put the slave at a flat angle.I emptied the master and held an adapter on the slave,two pumps,tighten the bleeder.I cant believe it,instant clutch!!! It was so easy with that tool.It took longer to lift the car than to bleed it.So thanks to who ever said to get one!!!
