I must have an earlier Mitey-Vac. It is made of metal, has a pressure/vacuum 
gauge built in and has a both a vacuum and a pressure connection.

I've used it with success for many years now.

But,,, if SWMBO has great looking legs.. then two people are best..

EZ Bleed feeds brake fluid into the system by air pressure doesn't it?B  I
like that system as opposed to the Mighty Vac type of system that sucks the
fluid through.B  I bought a Mighty Vac and could never totally get the air
bubbles out of the lines.B  Not worth a crap.

I just spent quite a while jacking up various wheels and bleeding the
brakes of my Sprite. Used an EZ bleed and cleared some air and old fluid.
I had good brake pedal pressure for about 30 seconds and now have
practically nothing. B I can get a little braking if I pump a few times,
but it's dangerous at best..
I paid a shop to install a new slave cylinder last year and the system
hasn't been the same since. B At first the gears were grinding and I had
them fix it.
Do I now need to bleed the slave cylinder? B If so, what's the easiest
method to get at it.
Thanks.
