I wish i could find chlorinated brake cleaner in california....works so much better than the non chlorinated. I still have a little bit left from berryman, good stuff.

ah thanks for that, they sell both kinds here and i didn't know which one to get.

the stronger, the better.

i'll send you some if ya want

I bought a $3 kit that had some plastic hose, a little jar, and some various fittings that works great for one-person bleeding.

i purchased some clear tubing from lowes and used a milk jug with a screw lid. perfect and cheap.

had my dad press the pedal.

i ran the tube inside the jug handle to keep it in place.

worked great.

also the 95 honda has a great feature to flush the abs, all you have to do is open the abs bleeder screw and start the engine. it does all the pumping for you during the abs test cycle. i love it. the only thing i despise about this car are the pressed in wheel bearings.

Stay away from the Phoenix one man brake bleeder. I bought one and it is junk. I hear, no first hand knowledge, that the Vacula one man BB is good.
