Re: IML: speedbleeder valves

["D. Howland" <howlands@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I had a bad experience with one of those speedbleeders that made me ditch 
them (after I had been happy with them, btw). I had one break off in a 
caliper when I was removing the bleeder. I didn't think it should do that. 
And I never was happy with the MityVac either.

I am now sold on this device http://www.motiveproducts.com/02bleeders.html . 
This pressurizes the system so all you have to do is open screws until 
everything is flushed out. It may seem like overkill, but if you use it 
once, you'll wonder why you worked so hard doing it any other way. The more 
cars you have, the more this makes sense.

I also use the ATE Super Blue dot 4 brake fluid. Once blue comes out, you're 
done. And you can alternate, gold-blue-gold-blue, every time you change 
fluid.
