Dorman Help! 12704 Speed Bleeder 5/16-24X1.0

Super easy for 1 person bleeding. I attached a clear tube that fits snuggly over nipple, routed in a loop so fluid would have to be pushed above caliper, into a cup. Crack open 1/4 turn, top off reservoir, pumped 5 times, check reservoir, continue until clean. No more bothering wife to help. Will look for other applications for my other cars.

I was looking for stainless self bleeding screws

These fit and did the job for my 74 Corvette. Ordered 1 set to do the front and to make sure they fit. Then ordered 2 more sets once I pulled the rear wheels and saw each side had 3 bleeders, but only needed some for the top 2 on each side. Brake light is now off and it was a 1 man job thx to the check valve feature.

I will never bother with standard brake bleeder valves again. The hardest part is get the old ones out. Other than that, they are a breeze to install and make bleeding brakes a simple job.

One bleeders was leaking (not at the threads), so I just treated it as a regular bleeder. The other one works, makes it a lot easier to bleed alone.

Worked great

I replaced my brake lines, brake booster, and master cylinder on my 1976 C3 Corvette and could not bleed the brakes for the life of me. I tried the 2 person method, a hand vacuum pump bleeder tool, a pressure pump bleeder tool that you hook up to compressor and gravity bleeding technique... None of them worked for me. Every method still had air in the line and no pedal pressure. I purchased these to replace all of the bleeders and was able to get the air out of the lines in 20 minutes. I wish I purchased these sooner. I recommend also using a 3/16 clear tubing and placokg the tubing on the bleeder nipple and run the other side of the tubing to a bottle, jar, or some sort of other container. The tubing I'm the bottle should be submerged in brake fluid to create s vacuum. Finally make sure the hose and the bottle is higher than the bleeder. These extra steps are not 100% necessary but they do help you in insuring the fluid is solid and creates a better visual of the air coming out into the tube. Hope this review helps someone.

This bleeder worked great! It was easy to bleed the brakes alone. I will be buying another set for the front of the car soon.
