I usually find small kids love to do the brake pedal bit - gives them a sense of importance. Rightly so.

I'm looking for a one person bleeder gadget as well, so just a couple of questions for a bit more info. The Eezibleed mentioned above connects to the reservoir and to the spare wheel? How long is the tube that connects to the wheel, if I put the wheel in the back of the van by the walk-through will it be close enough, or does it have to be right up in the cab somewhere?

Cheers

Tony

On the floor near the door is fine Tony :ok

I always prefer the up ... up, down ... down approach though.

That's great, thanks Ian. Do you think it's faster to do it with someone pumping the pedal, or do you prefer the rythm method for another reason? :wink:
