Brake bleeding help...

[brian_wagner at sbcglobal.net (Brian Wagner)]

Are you serious?

You broke a bleeder and you haven't replaced the bleeder or the caliper. I
mean come on replacing the bleeder is fairly simple, easy out of the right
size and boom you pull out the bad and put in a new. And if you can't find
just a bleeder swap the caliper with a reman.

Maybe you shouldn't have a car if you are not going to maintain it properly,
I know I don't want to be on the road around you.

Just my .02

thankfully it stayed closed.  But I plan on swapping pads/discs/lines in the
near future, and was wondering - would a power brake bleeder eliminate the
troubles I would have with trying to bleed the system?  How, and more
importantly, how good do these work?  Worth it ($44)?  Thx!
