I hate brake bleeding. Since buying a used reverse pressure bleeder, I hate it LESS. A lot less.
I can bleed my brake lines myself. The setup I use is for reverse bleeding. I hook the pressure pot hose to the open bleeder valve and pressurize the pressure pot (partly filled with DOT 3) and then walk to the MC and watch the bubbles stream up through the MC port. I have a bulb syringe (ear syringe bulb works great) handy to prevent overflow of the MC. When bubbles stop, I release pressure from the pot and let it gravity drain a few seconds before tightening the bleeder and moving to the next bleeder. I LOVE this method because bubbles want to flow uphill, it’s quick, and I can do it without a helper.
