Your method of changing brake fluid?

[Invertigo]

Bought a pressure bleeder a few years ago, the type you pump up and it creates pressure in the reservoir forcing fluid through as soon as you crack the bleed nipple.

Would never go back to pedal pumping now, especially on older cars that may have slightly worn brake cylinders.

These work great one some cars, but not all. The cap on my SW20 is push fit so the screw on caps they come with do not work. You can get a plate to clamp to the MC, but that doesn't fit on my car. I did try to make my own push fit cap by modifying a regular cap, but I couldn't pressurise it enough to work before the cap popped off.

Plastic pipe with a one way valve in it's length that was meant for a catheter attached to the nipple. Stick the end in a jar & pump the pedal.

This, i think the one can buy is called an EZ Bleed, i've got 2 of them and used them for years with no issues. Think it was less than £15 from halfords, well worth it.

I have got on of the pressurised type but on every car I've come to use it on they've had the wrong kind of cap on the master cylinder so i just go back to my old one as it's so quick and easy anyway.
