I am intrigued by the idea of bleeding my hydraulics using a wet/dry
vacuum; I think it was Larry Macy who suggested the idea.

Question:  Would it be advisable to install a one way check valve between
the line and the vacuum?

I was thinking of one of those that fit between the vacuum source and the
booster on GM brake systems (only because I have a bunch lying around). 
If not that, can someone suggest a suitable and cheap alternative?
