PMB has a tech tip on "gravity bleeding" your brakes. What it doesn't explain is the way to bleed a caliper with 2 bleeders.
Did I miss something or do just use only one of the bleeder ports. |

I use the Motive Power Bleeder, but I use it "dry". I don't put any fluid in the bleeder, just use it as a pressurized air reservoir. Still does the same job, but no mess when you unscrew the cap. The only potential drawback is that you have to keep checking the car's reservoir and re-fill it before it runs low (same as with the Wife/Assistant method).
