Brake bleeder

I saved a lot of money by not buying a reverse bleeder. For reverse bleeding go to an Ag store and buy a large syringe and some clear plastic tubing. Fill the syringe with brake fluid, bleed the air out of it, put the tube over the bleeder screw and push the fluid back. Not the best idea to force all of that old corroded fluid back through a system. When doing a brake job on a daily driver don't push the caliper piston back without opening the bleeder or you're pushing the crud back into the ABS and the MC.
