Installing a new MC in our '65 Sprite. Will be using the ez-bleed system. Is '"bench bleeding" required? Using DOT 5,
PLEASE: let's not start the war on fluids again!
 
When I did my last Bugeye a few years ago, I did not bench bleed and was able to get a good pedal. Your mileage will definitely vary, and I'm curious what others will say as I have one to do myself one of these days.
 
I think I bench bled mine but don't know that it made a big difference.
 
With the Eez-E-Bleed, I never had to bench-bleed one.
 
Let us know how it turns out
