RicK:
I am fairly new to this and do not know whether your technique already has been
'broadcasted' on the web or not, but if it is an alternative to the ezebleed,
could you have some time to fill me in?
Thanks,

Kevin,
I just put my '74 Midget back on the road after major steel, paint,
and engine work. I installed a roller bearing release bearing from
MiniMania and it works very well. I also put in a teflon braided
hose from Moss, and the combination feels very good. The worst part
is getting the hydraulics bled again, but I found a technique that
seems to work.
Regards,
Rick Brodeur
