I've have good success using a hand held vacuum pump bleeder as well, since often I'm by myself. The Harbor Freight one works well for my needs.
Exactly how does the HF tool work? I have a bit of a soft brake pedal and wanted to bleed the brakes to see if that does anything. I usually only have my 12 year old to help if I need a second set of hands. I was reading the manual online for it and one section says fill the brake fluid and bleed. Later on it says to fill the brake fluid and replace the master cylinder lid.
Is this idiot proof?
What order would you go in? I'm thinking right rear, left rear, right front, and then left front but not positive.
Details of each step would be appreciated.
