I have used a Gunson Eezibleed Kit for donkeys years. The first kit was <br>
bought around 1965, later was ones followed as these were constantly <br>
improved upon. However you can improvise on this with a bicycle inner tyre.<br>
<br>
Basically you pressurize the brake fluid reservoir and open the bleed <br>
nipples one by one until clear and bubble free liquid appears. You need <br>
to get used to the system to avoid spillages and you have to top up the <br>
brake fluid reservoir after flushing each line.<br>
<br>
Others use a vacuum hand pump to draw the fluid through the bleed nipples.<br>
