One man brake bleed
Hi guys,
I have 1979 W123 gasoline. I need to change the master pump - it has gone soft and do the subsequent brake bleeding exercise.
I have heard of the pressure and the vacuum gadgets for a one man DIY.
I have an old electric fuel pump (low pressure type used in carburetor engines).
I am toying with the idea of using it to bleed the brakes at the wheels. Any suggestions, comments and/or criticisms welcome before I attempt it.
Thank you.
Shan.
