Damn. I just bought one of those power bleeder gizmos, and haven't assembled it yet.

I have the speed bleeders on the S2000, and it seems to work fine. I still have someone else pump the pedal, just so I can see the fluid go through the bleeder tube without any bubbles. I have bled the brakes about 6-7 times already with the speed bleeders. They came with some sealant gook that you put on the speedbleeder threads, and then dry it with a hair dryer before you screw them in.

1. They work nicely.
2. Reportedly they twist off easily.
3. They require an SAE sized wrench.
