Anyone use Speedbleeders?

Who said I wanted gravity to work on the bubbles?? If gravity works on the fluid - the bubbles will go somewhere you can let them out

Nobody. I just felt like being a geek.

Don't worry, the feeling has passed now.

But, regardless of which way the fluid is going, bubbles will always want to go up, if left to their own devices.

I have the Speed Bleeders on my car and they work really well. I track my car and swap the fluid out a lot and it makes it easy. I actually use the speed bleeders with the Mighty Vac to keep the mess down.

Actually, I think they just proved that when it looks like the bubbles in a Guinness are going down instead of up... they really ARE going down instead of up.

Of course this has something to do with the fact that they are going up even faster in the middle of the glass and so the flow of fluid pushes down on the bubbles next to the wall of the glass.
