This is a two person method without using a bleeder pump.

Seems like I found too many ways to make it more difficult then it needed to be. Great video without all the extra nonsense. Dual camera was a big help also. You saved me a lot of time. Thank you.

Thanks a bunch for this video. I feel like this is much simpler than other methods I watched. No special tools, just a second person. I had a small water bottle that I was able to put over the end of my bleeder valve and it kept everything contained. With this technique, my 11 year old son and I were able to bleed the breaks using nothing more than an 8mm crescent wrench. Thanks again.

Best brake bleeding video on the web. Simple and to the point. Worked great after replacing the rear cylinders and brake lines on my '93 Jeep ZJ.

The dual camera really helped, thank you for this video !

Helpful to see what's going on when no tubing is connected, showing steady flow when air is pumped out. The mistake was actually very helpful for newbies to see too...nice!

Needed a refresher and this was perfect ! We need more vids like yours thats straight to the point and zero BS. Great job on the video!

I’m pretty inexperienced with car repair and with diy-ing but this looks simple enough. The other videos I watched on this weren’t as to the point as this is. Thank you so much, now off I go to bleed my brakes. ☺️

Great video. my father was a looser and never taught me. This was straight to the point and was clear on what needed to be done. Thank you

This guy has got it right! Worked like a single father in 2023 for my Lexus IS

good to go, my daughter & I, with no mech skills, just did ours! awesome video! thank you! our brakes work again and it only cost me $4! Wowzers!

[Pingaheimer]

videos like this save alot of people money, thanks.

I went through a few videos trying to find one without a hose attached to the bleeder as my boss doesn’t use one at the shop so thank you for showing this method and explaining that part a bit!

After struggling to do my rear brakes, i now need to do this. Learned the hard way some vehicle calibers twist in, and using force and a vice doesn't push them in 😂 opened the valve to release pressure and definitely let some air in. Oh well, I have now mastered my brake changes through error!

A great video thanks for the assistant who highlighted some important pitfalls

[rayswain]

thanks for actually showing what to do instead of just talking about the job after you've already done it and not showing anything like some of the clowns. me and my wife will be doing this in about two hours. thanks again.

Thank you, I will try bleeding the brakes this way, your video is very informative and straight to the point. Thank you again.

[samgold]

This was the exact type of video I was looking for.
This was the way I was shown and has always worked well.
Thanks heaps!
