Re: Vacuum Bleeder?
I still use a vacuum pump but have found that in nearly all cases, I have to wrap the bleeder nipples with teflon tape due to leakage around the thread while the bleeder valve is open. This is the major problem with vacuum bleeding process. Some wheel cylinders have tighter threads than others but they all wear down eventually.
Pressure bleeding is better but is a bit more expensive and a person has to be careful when changing to different types of brake fluid.
