Since Rob Mueller is going to be paying me a visit, and the wasps are all
dead dead DEAD oh frabjous day callou calay I think it might be fun to
shoot a video on Brake Bleeding with the Hupy Bleed-O-Matic (my name for
it, I don't know what he calls it).

Rob asked me to hit the bleeder screws with some PB-blaster or similar and
let them get good and soaked before he and his lovely wife arrive for a
visit. We'll take a look at the brakes and make a determination as to what
further parts, if any, need to be ordered for the future.

So, uh, what exactly am I looking for? Spraying somethign down with PB
blaster is certainly my speed, but I need to know what I'm looking for.
I've never done brake work before, wisely leaving something that can kill
me to the professionals. :)

Is there a link to a picture of what I'm looking for on the wheel cylinders
and the calipers? And what size plastic tubing fits over them?
