For the lazy people

Speed bleeders!

My dad got these for his car which makes more sense since the brake pedal and the bleeder screw are so much farther apart. But if you're really lazy you could use them on your bike too.

I'm not lazy, I's just tired all the time.

I'm not lazy, I'm energy efficient.


Seen these but never got round to buying them. Would be nice on the truck.

dont you need to use the pedal with the car on in cars with ABS to get the fluid to push through the abs module?

Nope, and you had better NOT try that with an "integral" ABS system or you're gonna get hurt!

it isn't laziness it's an economy of motion

Spiegler has offered these for quite a while.

eah, those Russels have been around for quite a while. Put them on my 96 240SX back in 98-99...

Satisfy my curiosity, and cure my ignorance: why is this?

An "integral" ABS system supplies the braking assist power, normally supplied by a vacuum booster, via a pump that creates an average of 1500psi. Sometimes more depending on the mfg'er. If you don't follow specific procedure and bleed this pressure off and you crack open a bleeder or component, or re-pressure the system while still working on it, things get nasty and painful, quick!
