Re: One Person Brake Bleeding with a Mityvac

I have had good results with the various vacuum type bleeders ( my own use a airline so no hand pumping needed). The key prior to even using a vacuum bleeder is to pull the cap on the master cylinder first and crack open the bleeder on the cylinder or caliper that you wish to bleed and let it gravity bleed for a good while. Then close the bleeder top off the fluid. Then attach the vacuum bleeder and just ever so slightly crack the bleeder.

Thanks
