Sometimes wheel cylinders that are not replaceable have become rusted where the bleeder screw inserts, even with new screws, making conventional bleeding difficult. For example vacuum bleeding does not work in that case. Pressure bleeding also difficult if any rust around master cylinder. If one is by ones self, two 2 x 4's of suitable length can make bleeding a one person job, although slightly slower than with two people.
