Awesome - FREE Homemade Car Brake Bleeder -- Brake Flush

- Awesome - FREE - Homemade Car Brake Bleeder -- Brake Flush -- Absolutely FREE and you can do this working on your own. No need for a helper. Bleeding the brakes with no more than a spray bottle pump, some 6mm (1/4)" and some 8mm tubing. Works brilliantly for a free DIY project. All I did was step up the tube size so that it would fit over the bleed nipple on the car. I tried to stop the bubbles with the grease but it did not work for me. No matter though because the bubbles enter the tubing through the thread and after the Brake cylinder which means that all the air is extracted from the line with vacuum made by the little hand pump. Add some brake fluid and start pumping. Cheers Gerry

My son and I replaced 3 feet of brake line on his 97 buick a few months ago. We used your first method of brake bleeding. It worked out great Gerry!
MB BAR RANCH
Hi Martin. Delighted it worked for you.We dont have many American cars here. Steering wheel on the other side and petrol / gas is lots more expensive here. Lots of diesel cars here getting 50+ miles per gallon. I worked in Oregon aver 20 years ago and loved the bigger engines. Thanks for commenting Cheers Gerry👍
Great idea I'll try it 🙂
@@GerrysDiy When you use this method, is the brake pedal in the car pressed down or not ?...Not to sound stupid but just curious, as Ive done my brakes before using a short pole compressing the petal while lodged against the seat. By what you said, sounds like this method totally bypasses pressing the brake at all !!!...Thanks !!!
@@humblewarrior6585 you don't touch the brake pedal with this method.
Sorry to ask is a Buick the same as a vauxhall mokka
40 years as a mechanic and never thought of this.
GENIUS!!
You mean to tell me for 40 years of bleeding brakes I could of done this!?!? Ah! An't no way😂 the40yearguy
Don't be stupid 😂😂😂
42 years a mech and never thought of this. Genius!
Dude, not even Auto school or professional experience has taught me something this useful as alternatives. Thank you.
@RAGNAR Why knock on people? We all learn things at some point, and I'd bet your PhD neighbor is more financially well-off by building the medical devices, and can pay people who are auto technicians to work on his cars.
I wouldn't trust it to get all the air out of the system. I have used suction to bleed the brakes and it is not very reliable. I will use a hand operated vacuum pump to get the fluid pulled through the system, but I found it never gets rid of all the air.
I have found a simple product with a non-return (check valve) works like a charm. I use my phone's camera to video the fluid/bubbles out the tubing while I pump the pedal. I watch the video and can see when the bubbles are gone and when it is clean brake fluid flowing through. It is a true one-man bleeder product that works perfectly every time.
The simple tool is the cost of a fast-food value meal. I don't need anybody's help to bleed the brakes now.
@@davidparker9676 but you don't share what the simple tool is?
@@theophany1770 It's a GearWrench 2538
"One-Man Brake Bleeder"
@@theophany1770
You can make a one man brake bleeder with a make-shift check valve just by taping a balloon to the end of a piece of tubing & cutting a slit or two in the folds on the side of the balloon. If you can't picture what I mean, just search "homemade one man brake bleeder" & it should come up.
I’ve been bleeding brakes for 50 years - always needed two people. This is brilliant. Many thanks.
This is one of those slap your head obvious solutions...why didn't I think of this myself? Genius, Gerry! Well done.
Have to agree. Bloody obvious now. Can’t wait to try it.
😂
The blue tube
If the brake fluid is clean already.....should work but if the fluid is dirty rust or other debris....that tiny spray is clogged.
Couldn't put it better myself.
If you're going to do it, use a turkey baster (or even the spray bottle) to suck all the old fluid out of the master reservoir and refill it with fresh clean fluid. You'll see the difference in colour. Then bleed the wheels until you see the clean fresh fluid come through. Keep topping up the reservoir. The colour in the fluid is contamination.
I did this with one of those pumps from a shampoo bottle. The big ones can pump quite a bit of fluid.
This method takes the fear out of bleeding brakes without a helper. Fantastic!
This probably works well to get most of the air out of the system, but I wouldn't trust it enough to get it all out.
Air at the bleeder is still air in the system that will compress and make the pedal feel softer than if it was properly bled.
Meh it's so easy to do
Today is 9/12/2023...i went to change my brakes and unscrewed the brake fluid line not paying attention..i end up getting air in lines..long story short i used his method and my brakes work amazing..thanks Sir
Thank you sir, for your feed back. 👌
Like you mentioned air is post fluid system. I worked as a brake and alignment monkey for ~8 years on flat rate. To bleed brakes even after caliper or wheel cyl replacement. Gravity bleed. crack all 4 bleeders let them drip until no more bubbles. close them. Two quick jabs on the pedal after they are closed. then start at furthes and crack bleeder. you'll get 2-3 bubbles and then solid fluid. 99.9% of time won't need a buddy or vacuum to bleed the brakes. usually did this while quoting another car. Worked in a few different shops and everyone did it this way. Quick Fast Easy.
What about removing trapped air from clutch hydraulics? Same?
Done the same thing only using engine vacuum as a pulling source. Found that I was actually pulling air INTO the brake cylinder. It's designed to prevent fluid from leaking when it's pressurized. When pressurized, the seals in the cylinder hold tight, preventing leaks and operating the brakes. When you pull a vacuum from INSIDE the cylinder (engine vacuum or hand pump) air can slip past the seals easily. If you don't get those air bubbles out you're just making a bad situation possibly worse.
Seen these things on the internet before. While people swear they work - and they do work to some degree - they don't do as good a job as is done when the brake system is pressurized from the master cylinder down through the brake tubes and wheel cylinders.
Could it be that manifold vacuum has that problem, but the very gentle pressure difference of a window cleaner bottle just doesn't?
Anything more than 5psi of pressure is way too much... I only pump it to 5 and let it sit, eventually will go down as bubbles come up (FYI I attach a fitting to top of master, not caliper) continue until system holds pressure for an hour. This method works on the clutch master as well and is the only way to bleed gm clutches properly
If you’re doing the 2-person bleed, know that if the cup in the master cylinder piston hits a ridge on the bore, such as accumulated dirt, you’ll be rebuilding it. Use short half strokes, not all the way to the firewall. A block of wood under the pedal may help.
Top man Gerry you've definitely helped so many with this cheap effective quick fix, cheers mate.
So many years of working on cars and I come up with some pretty handy diy but never did I think of this. So simple yet so awesome. Thank you brother.
50 years working on cars (shade tree mechanic) and you teach me something new that is extremely useful
This is such an awesome and easy way to go about bleeding brakes! Don’t know why I haven’t thought of this, I did it today for two new calipers and it worked just as I hoped. Thanks!
Caveat: Bubbles further up in the lines will take longer to appear using any vacuum method, since they aren't being pushed by the master cylinder piston. This applies more with wheels further from the master cylinder location, which you should bleed first.
When the vacuum is on. Go in and press the brake
As an aside, I like your channel name. 😄We need less attention to the laser pointers and loud noises, with more given to the back door shenanigans that will affect the quality of life of everyone. 😉 People have been fat, dumb and happy for too long, and their complacency, apathy and ignorance are coming to collect. As the saying goes, shit's gonna get real, really soon. I wish we could bleed the social system like a brake system. 😜
@@YungEagle3k should've stayed aside........
Must one bleed the car when changing oil? Or top it up
@@shedrackobuene2521 no, just about every 3 years
Great video, you are a very likable guy. This break bleeding technique is the smartest one I've seen 👍👏
By far the smartest
Its not just showing how to do it But also The best and cheapest solution to make it a 5 minute job for pretty much everyone above 12 years old
Thanks for the great tip. You might want to cut about 4 inches off the top of the empty window cleaner bottle and screw it back into the pump head so you have a more comfortable handle.
Or just stick the hose through a hole in the bottle..
Damn right idea! :)
Genius
That’s ingenious and a time saver. I’m doing my brakes right now
Excellent idea. Who would've thought
Been working on my own vehicle for years 👍👍👍
Excellent! Can't believe how simple and cheap that procedure is. Thanks for that Gerry. 😊
This man deserves a medal. He deserves to be in Guinness world records book. This man deserves a town named after him. This is the smartest thing I’ve ever seen a human being do in my entire life. Thank you sir
You must be mental LOL, silly lapdog, it does it itself by gravity , no need for all that bollox going on..YT mechanics, funny people
Sir! Mind blown, I honestly wouldn't have thought of this. Great video!
Hey Gerry had a problem bleeding front brake on my Kawasaki vn1500, watched your video went out and tried your idea and straight away I had a front brake. Thanks bud keep the videos coming
Great idea! Wish I would have thought of this before I went out and purchased a vacuum pump for bleeding my brakes. Very creative! 👍
I love simplicity that actually works; great job!!!
Holy crap, that was so easy.
I do all my repair work on vehicles myself and this is awesome 👌.
I tried to bleed my brakes over the weekend using this spray bottle method and there are a lot of little pit falls that were not highlighted.... Like you need to seal the bleeders threads, and you need to remove the master cylinder reservoir cap, and it's a good idea to prime the sprayer with brake fluid first .... long story short, I ended up doing it with a pressure bottle a the reservoir, all done. lol
I love this mechanic wow!I don't need no one to pump up the brake for i,you never too old to learn thanks for this idea boss
Thanks Gerry, brilliant as always!
Glad you enjoyed it
Amazing. No words. Genius.
You sir are amazing, such clear video and so obvious hahahaha. I have built racecars and never thought of this before, comes to show how much there is to this profession. Have a great day!
I pondered this invention more than once without actually trying it. I just made mine using your steps. It’ll remain the single greatest tool in my garage. You Da Man!
It’s better though to remove some of the old fluid from the master cylinder first and then add new fluid to it. Then as you do this you will see the fluid colour change to be the new clear, bubble free stuff. Then you know it’s air free. If you wanted to change the brake fluid for the entire car, do this starting with the rear passenger wheel first (furthest from the master cylinder) and then move on to the driver side rear wheel, then the passenger side front wheel and then the driver front wheel making sure to add new fluid to the master cylinder before starting each wheel to ensure you don’t run it dry and pull in air. When you do this you will have changed out your entire brake fluid system for new fluid.
That's hysterically brilliant!!!
Great idea, simple and quick. Well done!
Thanks for commenting. Much appreciated Cheers Gerry👍
Thats a pretty good idea. I've always just submerged a hose in clean brake fluid and pumped the brakes a few times, whilst topping up the master cylinder. Will give this a go next time.
This method is incredible. Can’t believe I’ve just come across this video. Thank you so much for sharing this. This is just as good as when sliced bread was introduced. You, sir, are a genius!
But sliced bread has so many more uses.
Excellent how- to Irishman, hello from Oz.
those bubbles are caused by agitation. took me a while to get it. You have to squeeze the trigger slowly up and down. Similar to pressing the pedal too much causing froth and liquid draining too fast from the master.
I find it easier to spray horizontally, if you point the nozzle downwards it has trouble to spray after a while. Just spray into bigger bottle which you hold at an angle bottom away from you.
Yeah they are designed that way, so the pickup tube is in the liquid I.e pick up straight down. When you get your ears tuned in ,you can hear the atomized air fluid v straight brake fluid just by the different sound and spray pattern.
By far the most efficient and most effective method, thank you so much for sharing this.
You're welcome! Cheers Gerry 👍
It's by far NOT the most effective and efficient method!
@@larock-np8zc Correct it does take awhile, I actually did the reversed method after trying this technique, which was using a bike pump to force air upwards out of the reservoir.
@@slept-on_SPSo you put air into your brake system?
@@kiwiingenuity1677Yep brakes only worked at 20% stopping power but its chill the car was stolen but I sold it already.
Outstanding idea!!! Thanks for sharing it with us!
Thats a great idea you have Gerry. And you can't beat the price of this equipment. I bought a similar brake bleed gun a dozen years ago that does the same thing. It wasn't cheap either. Thanks my friend. I like this method and can see myself using this. 👍👍
Hi Dean. I really appreciate you commenting. Hope things are safe and well with you. Cheers Gerry👍
Yes things are safe and well my name is Dean .I know you wasn't talking to me at least I think not but about your bleeding the brakes trick I love what you just showed me I just did a complete brake job on my Chevy truck and I don't even want to mention a two person brake bleed because I couldn't get one person to come help me bleed the system when I had all of my so called friends saying you gotta have help bleeding the brake well I had some help a baseball at and a block of wood .I wish I would of known that you could bleed brakes like that .I'm gonna go rebleed my brakes just to see how this works for my self but I must say my ideal with the baseball bat and a block of wood did an excellent job but it was not easy this way is just to damn easy .I must try this now thanks
Thanks for your great idea , I'm working on my car brakes and I was about to buy one those expensive pump to bleed the brake lines!!!
Now I will try this and see how it goes!
Thanks again for your video!!!
Pure genius Gerry! Knowledge like this is just lovely!! Thanks for sharing!
Loosen the Brake reservoir filler cap, gravity will move the fluid out from the bleeder nipple with much less air. Let the bubbles settle out along the clear tube. Air will always rise. No need for a pump. Don't let the reservoir get empty.
So loosen cap and bleeder valve?
You are thinking on a different level. I LOVE THIS. Thank you!
Brilliant idea. I'm always working alone in my workshop. This will make a huge difference.
Easy to use, cheap tools, thanks for the tip
Yes good idea Gerry, but the main reason anyone needs to bleed their brakes is to remove any air trapped in the braking system, you can only be certain all air is removed from the system when no more bubbles exit the bleed nipples, in your demonstration it's wrong to assume the bubbles still exiting the nipple was due to air being sucked through the threads of the nipple, as some of those bubbles could be due to air still in the system. Best way to bleed brake systems is to use the pressurized method at the brake fluid reservoir, this way you get a steady flow of fluid being pushed out of the system, this steady flow is more likely to dislodge and remove trapped air pockets.
I watched previous video and i can not wait more 10 min .
I made one like your tool.
Many thanks
Iraq
Been a 2 person all my life, what a great idea Gerry,next time I need to I will give it a go, brilliant idea!!!
I am a convert, worked for my clutch and brakes. Gerry made the only job I couldn't do on my own now obsolete. Gona try thread pvc tape on the bleed screw from now on.
@@kiwiingenuity1677 hey how’d it go ? Any tips? I’m in between this method and gravity bleeding.. i think i might gravity bleed first and then do this method… since I’ve installed new SS lines all around and new brake master cylinder, also abs delete kit, so way less brake lines now so in theory I’m hoping it’s way easier to bleed my brakes now..… also new clutch master & slave so I’ve got lots of bleeding fun ti do… it’s a racecar I’m building and I’ve done literally everything else but i was about to outsource this bleeding job to a shop/ mechanic but i think i got it in me now to do it myself and save some bucks and avoid trailering the car too..
Tip: If you wrap the bleeder screw with teflon tape, you will have a tighter seal AND less chance of the bleeder rusting in place.
I don’t think you’re supposed to use any Teflon on brake fittings lol.
@@user-hh4hc2lt6e On the bleeder screws....not the fittings. It keeps them from becoming one with the caliper.
Nice method to get the bulk of old fluid out of the system. I would suggest to
a) repeat this 2-3 times and put new brake fluid into the reservoir (before it runs low) to get fresh fluid into the caliper.
b) Additonally. Do the 2 man pedal pump/crack open method at least 2-3 times in the end to make sure no air made it into the caliper through the threads (as we can clearly see even with the grease theres a lot of air sucked in through the threads).
I been working on cars for 40 years and I never seen anything like this, excellent video.
This technique was unheard of for me then I had to try it and all I can say is WOW! This saved me 200 bucks for the moment and the brakes on my Magnum are the best they've ever been! I tip my hat to you my good sir, this helped me SO much! Wish I could shake your hand
Great idea. I’ve been doing things the hard way for quite a few years. Thank you.
It’s always nice to do things and save a little cash especially you know you have to learn to be a one-man army thank you gerry
Thanks Stephen. This is easy to do and works great. 👍
Thanks so much man !
Never came to this idea .
LIFESAVER
I have no words to describe how much I'm surprised by your fabulous method mister. Thank you so much for sharing this great idea with us.
That was AWESOME!! I've done a lot of brake work over the years and it's such a pain to bleed them by my self until now..
Except the old way builds my thigh and calf muscles each time I did it. :)
I just put the hose on the bleeder going up, then down into a can, crack the bleeder and wait for the fluid to drain out & bubbles to stop. Gravity does all the work. It takes longer, but you can smoke one cigarette at each wheel. Just don't forget to keep an eye on the master cylinder level!
Yes here is a tip for rusted bolts etc take a empty spray bottle fill with water about 3/4 way up add dish liquid shake well and use it to loosen rusted bolts etc works amazing
I've been a mechanic for thirty years and I've never seen this. Brilliant.
Great idea! FYI, I've always used a MityVac to bleed mine, and there are bubbles with that also.
Been there and done this.
The advice you were given was totally correct, the bleed nipple threads need to be sealed to ensure there are no bubbles drawn through the threads -
these bubbles would give an indiction that the brake system still has air in it.
or
If we stop bleeding because we assume the bubbles are coming through the thread then were are assuming there are no leaks in the brake system. Dangerouse.
The way I have cured this problem (for vacum or syphon bleeding) is -
* Remove the nipple and get the nipple and the female threads dry.
* Apply a thin coat of automotive silicone sealer to the threads on the nipple.
* Screw the nipple back in and commence bleeding the brake caliper through the nipple.
* When no bubbles in brake fluid coming from the calliper close the nipple.
Repeat this process for all remaining callipers.
The silicon sealer acts as a an airtight gasket while bleeding and corrosion protection for the threads.
pressure bleeding is better, feeds fluid to the reservoir and pushes the fluid through the system so nothing can get sucked in
I've done this method and I prefer it over the old way. Everyone has there preferences there's no right or wrong way. This method is quick and simple no need to get back up and down and checking and pouring or pumping brakes. Thats why I prefer this method!
"Clever boy!" thank you!
I used this method for my power steering ,works great .
Now start that process with the right rear then left rear followed by passenger front and driver front. 👍🏻
Brilliant ! Bloody easier than having to pump the pedal. 👍🏻
Wow....all these years and there was an obvious answer staring me in the face the whole time. Thanks for the tip sir!
Gov using hard shoulders for extra lane,new cars coming without spare wheel recipe for death+ disaster,just so companies can get £50-60 extra profit out of new cars, NO SPARE WHEEL NO NEW CAR SALE PLEASEDI SEEN THIS TODAY!!!!
Will have to try that on my SXS in a few days. Thanks for the video!!!
Thanks for a great tip I need to bleed my brakes and was thinking who ask for help now I don't need anyone. Cheers 👍
To hell with all of them so say all of us .
That is the best part eh !
Many thanks Gerry! This is a true time and labor saver! God bless you for sharing this with us!
Sounds like it saves you from having to hop in and out of the car to pump the brakes. Great tip !
Labour.
Thanks Gerry, top tip. I’ll be applying it on motorcycle brakes. All the best from the north of England.
Top! This will work on cooling liquid as well. Thnx for your idea.
Muito bom, mesmo! !!👏👏👏👏
This is fantastic. I may try this out, but before I crack the brake line, gonna pump the trigger a few times to get a good vacuum going, see if I can force some fluid out when I crack it.
Long story short just bought Miracle Gro AA battery powered sprayer in clearance at Walmart for only $2.50! So the “I know I’ll need this feel” is even better when truly works out! Lol
A great video. Well explained and if you are alone, an easy way to bleed the system.
Freakin' brilliant! Thanks!
Great tip thanks i suggest you to remove master cilinder cap so the fluid will flow easier
I just did my brakes and I wish I saw this first. Genius idea! 🎉
I've always used a children's medicine syringe to pull a vacuum. On smaller stuff like ATVs ang go karts I'll use the syringe to force bleed the brakes, pull brake fluid fill it up then pushing the fluid through the bleeder all the way to the master cylinder. But I think I'm in love with your setup, thanks!
Now this is what i call innovation! Allways have to call the wife to pump brakes for some 40 years now. Very frustrating for both of us. And now i have found a solution! This is good news for me. You are a genius sir. Cannot thank you enough. God bless you.
wow....so far it's been 20 years for me, so I can stop calling her now. save 20 years
I would like to see the look on your wife's face when you tell her she has been replaced by a spray bottle!
@@matthewmarch8707 even better frame a picture of the spray bottle top and put it in the family room next to all the relatives.
Thanks Gerry. Up the dubs 💪
Man and I was just about to head to harbor freight and buy a break bleeder,thanks for you knowledge sir
Great tip! Next time I have to bleed or flush my brake fluid I'm definitely doing it this way. However, I wonder if the electric spray nozzles that comes with bug or weed killer would work as well.
Thank you very much!!!! Smart simplicity is the best choice ever.
Ya just helped me bleed my motorcyle brakes thank you and saved me 60 smackaroos. Subbed
40 years doing brakes and never heard of greasing the bleeder valve. Never had any issues. To each his own I guess? Great idea. I will try your spray bottle technic.
Holy schnitke Batman! Wow - BRILLIANT!!! That tip alone gets You into My HALL OF FAME Car/Truck Guys Who TOTALLY Changed My Way Of Thinking After Decades Of Not Thinking Outside Of The Box!!!
thanks man! this works also on bicycle brakes 👍
Nice one!
Thank you! Cheers!
You are only cracking that bleeder screw open a quarter of a turn. My guess is, only a miniscule amount of air enters past the threads. Nothing to worry about - like you said, 👍
Simplist ideas are often the best ideas 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Yes they are! Thanks Works on Vespa's too 👍👍 Thanks for commenting Cheers Gerry
I use a Harbor Freight hand pump vacuum bleeder and experience the same bubbles. As Gerry explained it is harmless as it is on the outside of the brake caliper fluid chamber. I just work up a vacuum and let it pull out enough fluid to make me feel confident the reservoir in the caliper is bled. Using the squirt bottle system should work well as long as you keep pumping the trigger until the bleeder is closed.
What if you put a check valve in the line.
Brilliant I never thought of that 👍
Sir with your method, it is getting easier to bleed the brakes... thank u sir.
Great idea. Time to change my brakes I’m thinking. Thanks Gerry
Thanks Diarmuid. I know it's simple but ye cant beat free. Cheers Gerry😜👍
Thanks, you saved my day!
