Thanks for the info. I made a pressure bleeder using a one gallon garden spray, 3/16" clear hose, and an old 914 brake fluid res. cap and I didn't want to over the pressure the system and (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon8.gif) brake fluid all over the place.

I operate mine at 10 - 12 psi. More then that I am am worried about bursting something.

Also, if you have a pressure bleeder, you can't use speed bleeder nipples. Well, you can, but they negate the pressure bleeder.
