I read several posts about Speed Bleeders and that a lot of guys use them - they say it makes it real easy to bleed the brakes. I'm trying to bleed mine on my '77 now and tried using a Mity Vac vacuum pump but the little black adapter is pretty crappy in that it keeps wanting to come off the nipple. Am interested in the Speed Bleeders and saw on Summit that they're 9.88/pair. My question, how many (or how many pairs) would I need to buy? The rear calipers have 2 nipples (zerk fittings) on the outside - 1 facing the front, 1 facing the rear, and then 1 on the inside. When bleeding, don't I need to bleed all three on each rear caliper? Would that mean I would need 6 pairs just for the back, plus 1 pair for the 2 front? I've been bleeding all three on each rear caliper. That's right, right? Also, I've read posts about Motive Products Power Bleeder. Any opinion on whats the best? Thanks, Marc.
