Default speed bleeder for brake calipers

santa left me a set of speed bleeders for christmas. the install was too easy .

clean around old bleeder screws and remove them
screw speedbleeder into caliper until it seats.
open 1/4 turn.... attach tubing to tip of bleeder screw and put end of tubing into waste pan...remove cap to master cylnder and pump ......be sure to add brake flluid as you go so that cylinder doesn't go dry. easy easy easy

speed bleeder has a built in check valve (a spring and ball bearing) that opens when you pump the lever or pedal and closes when you let off. no way for air to enter the system from the claipers

it worked like a charm and was very easy to change the brake fluid in 5 minutes. i was very happy with this product
