Morning gentlemen;
Can anyone recommend a fairly cheap brake bleeder so I can replace my brake hoses by myself?
This will probably be a once in lifetime fix for the future.

I like the hand vacuum pumps like this one.

Mityvac is also good, but I have broken the pump handle on the plastic Mityvac pump.
Also good for vacuum leak checks, vacuum diaphragm tests, and sampling fluids.

I also have the Motive unit. So far unused, as it was with the previous owner I bought it from! Still in the box.
