I did it 100% per the instructions when I used it on my Jeep. It worked flawlessly.

Allow me to rephrase, "My experience on the S2000 leads me to suggest that gravity bleeding is the best way of bleeding brakes after having used all three mentioned methods." I never said the power bleeder didn't work.

Yup. That is the point, however, they fail more often than not when used a bunch. They're also sensitive to how much torque you apply to them when closing.
