Easy bleeders?

Post by Mjfire1949 »

1952 M38, 24 volt, Serial #65666, North Texas. Any opinions on using "Easy Bleeders" on my M38 other than the expense?

I've read about E-Z bleeders but didn't use them when rebuilding my M38's brake system. I built a pressure pot and connected that to the master cylinder to keep constant brake fluid pressure in the system, then sequentially opened the bleeders and let them run until all bubbles were gone. Much easier than the pedal pumping, open and close, 2 person way. You can buy a pressure pot bleeder, I made mine from a cheap garden sprayer.
