Which method do your prefer for brake bleeding/flushing?

>>17357564
that pump that's built into the car, powered by a foot

>>17357564
paying my mechanic to do it for me

>>17357567
In older cars that isn't always the best option. Brakes aren't always fully depressed during normal driving use like you do when bleeding/flushing. You can damage bearing surfaces.

I've never bled brakes because all my cars the bleeder thing is too rusty to use. It'd probably break off if I tried to move it. If I have to do brake work, I just make a little mess and quickly cork the end of the line so it doesn't drain itself entirely. Then when I'm reinstalling I keep my finger over it until the moment of truth and then make more mess.
