wanted a syringe to do my brakes, and asked the lady in the vets for one. She said she needed to know why I needed it, so I showed her my MPL instructions for bleeding my new slave and brakes, and explained I wasnt a junkie! She laughed then gave me a big syringe for free

I got a bleeding kit, but been told on here to reverse bleed it. Instead of pumping the lever and putting a tube on the nipple while tightening/untightening the the nipple, you inject fluid directly into the nipple and it forces it up into the resevoir at the lever. Air will want to go up not down, so you get a better job. Never heard of that technique before, but the idea makes sense to me.

Definitely interested; I never seem to have enough of the right tubing. I don't really need any syringes, but count me in for some tubing.

Tubing's always useful here as well
