    I just did this and it was super easy. I know it is really for one person but I had my son pushing the brake pedal because I wanted to see air bubbles come out and the fluid change with my own eyes. Thanks for this video.

    Guys,try gravity bleeding your brakes. Just crack open the nipple and just let the fluid piss out and keep topping it up. Then close nipple and voila

    I was so ready to make one of these, but when I looked for the tubing at my local hardware store I realized that it's cheaper for me to buy a bleeder than DIY one. The price of tubing is a bit ridiculous at the moment.

    My 82 year old dad STILL has that exact same drill. And he has the matching jigsaw.

    Another tip. If you have a piece of ferrous metal laying around, drop a magnet in the container, and sit on the piece of metal. That will keep it from moving/tipping, and you can pull off easy for storage.

    Hi, your content is awesome thank you! Question, I drained my HMMWV power steering (as much as possible, turning the wheel left and right and taking out as much fluid as possible). Filled it back up with the proper fluid and even after driving it two times I still don’t have any power steering. Any pointers? Thanks!

  11. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Charles Hines says:

    I did mine with a hand pump until I sucked out 8 ounces each wheel but I also kept an eye on the fluid level since if air ever gets in there I can't get it out on my own. That is the one critical thing, making sure that you don't run the fluid too low and get air in the system.

    Thanks man! I appreciate this. I did buy a Pittsburgh bleeder kit a couple years ago but that tiny bottle is hard to stablize. I have to do some brake work to our Sedona and Patriot soon so this is going to come in handy.

  13. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Chris Hernandez says:

    ChrisFix, I was wondering why I never see you use this method in any of your newer videos? Instead you do the old school, 2-person method. Why is that?

  14. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars LJ FARM says:

    Thank you Chris for the DIY Brake Bleeder Tank Tutorial Video. I learned a lot from your DIY videos. All the best

  15. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Michael Bray says:

    Simple, cheap, effective. It worked great! Thanks for yet another really helpful video!

    Thanks for the video, I was pretty sure I knew how to do it but it doesn’t hurt to double check…😂
