One man clutch bleed

I just replaced my clutch slave on my 22re because I was toping up the master every week and my clutch wasn't disengaging all the way. When I got my new slave I picked up a speed bleeder and bleeding the system took 5 min with no help. They come in a pack I 2 for $15 with a part number 12709 from autozone. After this I think I will put speed bleeders on all 4 brakes. I do all my repairs on the road or in parking lots because i live in a apartment.

I did it alone also, pump pump pump hold pedal with a stick, run around bleed x 10 times or so. Oh and keep the fluid level full, cost 0. But sounds interesting. i think i'll check it out.

The advantage of the speed bleeder is that it has a check valve in it so you don't have to shut it between pumps and you don't have to wory about sucking air back in.

Yea I had taken the drivers seat out just to get up in there to access the clutch slave. So a stick fit against the cab back perfectly.

Yup, PITA. Anyone have experience with a power bleeder kit that comes with adapters that fit Toyota clutch and brake masters?
