Brake Bleeders

[vnotaro]

Have been wanting to buy a one man brake bleeder but there are lots to choose from. Some take fluid in from the master cylinder and others pump fluid in from the calipers. Both seem to have merits. There must be a lot of guys out there using these. Any thoughts on which work best?

A presser bleeder on master cylinder is the best but cost more.
But some cars require a scanner with the brake bleeding set up for ABS in them.

I have Russell brake bleeders...open it up a little..attach a hose and stick it into a bottle ...start the truck and pump away. It's best to have someone watch for only fluid coming out. Then on to the next one.

ive only used the vaccum bleeders i havent had the guts to use the speed bleeders..... it may be the "what if...." factor
