Default Speed Bleeders FTW

I recently had to put a new master cylinder in a mustang i got, and i bought speed bleeders for each corner. Cost $16 for all four. I was able to bleed all four corners out in under 15 min, and the pedal is great. Great to use when you don't have a extra person to help you. Two thumbs up.

You don't need another person to help, you just put a water bottle with a little brake fluid and a vac hose in the bottle, and connected to the caliper.

what is a speed bleeder? is that the power bleeder that you hook up to a air compressor? you could just do a gravity bleed too, open up the screws poor fluid in and go eat some lunch.

All the venturi effect bleeders suck, in my experience. Admittedly I haven't tried any of them in a decade, but they all had issues.
