That $15 Harbor Freight brake bleeder actually didn't suck yesterday
Had to bleed the brakes on my buddy's 2005 F-150 and the bleeder screws were seized up something fierce. Tried the traditional two-person method (you know, yelling back and forth) and it was a mess. Grabbed that cheap vacuum bleeder I've been ignoring in my toolbox for like 6 months and it pulled the fluid through smooth on the first try. Anyone else find a random cheap tool that ended up being way better than expected?

You call that a "vacuum bleeder" but it's actually a pressure bleeder.

Honestly thought the same thing at first lol. Picked one up on a whim and figured it'd just be another junk drawer tool but it actually saved me so much time. Really changed my mind about that whole "you get what you pay for" thing with some of this stuff.
