Make your own speed bleeder.
#1) get empty 12oz brake fluid container.
#2) Hold it upside down (screw on top down towards ground), dill hole
smaller than 3/16 rubber hose.
#3) Force 3/16" hose through hole in bottom of 12 oz container. It should
be about 30" long and tight enough that it doesn't leak.
#4) Put hose on bleeder valve, loosen bleeder valve, go to front and pump
the brakes (not all the way to the floor, just about 2" or so).
#5) As the container fills it creates back pressure and the container
becomes pressurized.
#6) If you have the proper length hose and you hang the hose / container
over the top of your wheel you will maintain a pressurized column of
fluid. The bubbles arrive in the can with the fluid. If your fluid is
clean you can reuse it from the can, if its dirty you need to dump it.
#7) care should be used in pumping the brake pedal, if your master
cylinder piston travels into corroded areas of the cylinder it will score
the cups and cause your master cylinder to fail.
