Got a tube with a one way valve on the end that way no need to submerse the end in fluid. once no air bubbles show in line its bled.

get a length of flexi hose,

stick a tech screw in one end to close it up & cut a slit about 10mm long in the side with a knife

pop into a lucozade bottle & viola a 1 man blleding kit

I've got a hand vac pump which is great for bleeding brakes, and clutches, as well as other things like tuning carbs.  You bleed them from the bottom end.  I can't remember what it's called but I'll dig out some details if you're interested.  I think it's a Mityvac or something.  It worked a treat for changing the clutch slave cylinder at the side of the road in Marrakech.

I use a Gunsons kit, and also have one-way bleed valves (which work a treat!!). Both combine to make life a lot easier.

hobbit:
Dont forget with the Gunsons type kits, when you have finished wash out with warm soapy water and dry the kit , otherwise the fluid does nasty things to the kit after a while :wink:
