Clear hose for brake bleeding?
Can anyone steer me to what size or where to buy clear hose to bleed Z06 size calipers?
Having trouble finding anything that will fit securely on the bleeder.
I would like to keep as much of the brake fluid as possible off my calipers.

yep 1/4 inch and it never fits perfect on anything. If you buy a cheap 30 dollar mityvac youll get some rubber fittings, but eventually youll just want to go back to using the hose. one thing I do to keep the hose from popping off is position it and the container and then loop some excess hose around the the caliper or whatever else I can use to hold it in place, then hook it onto the bleeder. also turning the bleeder to loosen it may tend to turn the hose and container, so be careful.
