Has anybody used this brake bleeding kit before?
« on: 19 January 2011, 15:20 »
Ive just bought this brand new and it got delivered today with no destructions :rolleyes:
I have a rough idea how it works but can't find any info on the web.

It will be handy for when the missus isnt here and i want to bleed on me own.

Great stuff,i have got a compressor and have just bought the one i posted.Just dont know how to use it  :grin:

Im guessing it works on a vacuum and you press the trigger on the gun to suck the fluid through the bleed nipple.Although im not sure and dont fancy blowing the top off the master cylinder :grin:

Does it attach to to master cyliner then pump the fluid out the opened nipple, my little eezi bleed done this via an inflated tyre. Do you pump up the pressure?

Its via a compressor and runs at about 70psi i think it works on a vacuum,sucking out the fluid through the bleed nipple.But i want to make sure 1st as i dont want to blow a load of air into the system. :grin:
