I learned something last night! I have a Mityvac,(great little tool), and I was helping a friend bleed some brakes on a custom 71 C10 Chevy pickup. We bought a disk brake kit for the rears and as I was using the vac. I was getting a lot of air through the line at the connection point of the hose and the nipple. I thought that maybe it was air coming through the system but I wasn't getting much fluid with it. I went to the web site and looked at the instruction page and Mityvac recommends Teflon tape around the threads of the nipple. I removed the nipples and wrapped them with the tape and man what a difference. What was going on was air was traveling past the threads, so all I was doing was sucking outside air and not getting a good suction on the line. The link is http://www.mityvac.com/
