Hi Jim, I picked up 2 hydraulic brake lines from a wrecking yard (about 8 inches long) and have bent them to exit into the MC reservoir BELOW the fluid level. I then mount the MC in a bench vise and just push on the push rod/primary piston all the way in a # of times. Guaranteed bench bleeding. I hope this is helpful to you.
