Make your own speed bleeders. All your doing is gravity bleeding and catching it so it doesn't make a mess. I take water bottles and drill a hole in the top. Slide a rubber hose through it. I used 1/4 heater hose. Take a wire coat hanger and wrap it around the top to make a hook. Take about 5 minutes to make 4 of them.

You should look into a power bleeder Clicky

Import Power Bleeder Kit. The Adapter is 1101 For All Hondas.

I don't think thats correct.

Speed bleeders, when backed out partially, act as a check valve and allow you to do the pump bleed method with one person. When you step on the brake the bleeder allows fluid to flow out. But when you let off the pedal in between pumps, it prevents air from being drawn back in. Its faster than gravity.

These look pretty sweet and I may have to pick some up. But I've got the same question. Which are better, Earl's or Speedbleeder?
ok, i am totally off subject and not even thinking about the right thing here...lol yes you are correct with the speed bleeder, it is a little faster than gravity.
