Well, there's a Farina MG here, with a totally dead brake pedal and not
a drop of fluid in its standard Girling single-line system. My eezibleed
has no cap that fits the master and, besides, the BL workshop manual
says pressure bleeding on Girlings is out of the question.

Then it goes on to describe a really elaborate brake bleeding procedure
with "one fairly fast complete stroke followed by two or three rapid but
not all the way down strokes and tighten the bleeder at the end of the
last and slow downstroke"

Sounds like a three-person job and lots of acrobatics...anything easier?
