Rob-T, how do you like those "speed bleeders"? I've considered using them but have heard mixed coments. How do they seal the bleed nipple threads to the calliper/cylinder?

I use two different kinds... Both are Mityvac. One is a vacuum type bleeder that you hook to the bleed nipple and suck the fluid down from the M/C. This works best for the brake circuit and you don't have to worry about a perfect seal at the nipple because if air is sucked in, it's past the sealed circuit. The pressure bleeder I use mostly for the clutch circuit because reverse bleeding works best there. If I do a complete brake fluid change I do like to use the pressure bleeder from the M/C because it holds a greater volume of fluid and it's quicker. In all three cases, sealing at the nipple usually is not a major concern because of the direction the fluid is moving.
