Russell speed bleeders
I wanted to thank Tim ( Npccpartsman ) for the tip on the Russell speed bleeders, bleeding brakes with these was amazingly easy. I changed out the brake fluid in the system with these installed and all I can say is wow. These are a must have in my opinion.

speed bleeders are the cats meow!

We use them on our racing motorcycles and drag cars. One man operation on bleeding brakes!
