Re: [T3] Brake Bleeder Valves


<x-charset iso-8859-1>The pressure bleeders mean you don't need to pump brakes and risk possible
problems with the seals in the m/c.  Presumably though, the pulses of fluid
when pumping brakes can clean dirt and air from the wheel cylinders better
than just an even flow of fluid might?

So far I've never had a problem with a piece of rubber tube on the bleed
valve, with a screw in the bottom of it and a slit in the side to act as a
one-way valve.  A small bottle and string loop on it to hang it on the valve
finishes it off nicely - a 'steal' at 30p (50cts).
