This is a great chance to switch to DOT 4 fluid. Works better and is
better for your rubber parts.
You can just put a bleeder hose on the bleeder valve and the end of the
hose in a coffee can.
Gravity will bleed the system.
If you got a wife she can pump the pedal while you regulate the bleeder
valve.
Remember this may be the only chance you get to yell at your wife without
repercussions.
