I ask for a dozen and they're all free. Suck out all the old black fluid from the reservoir. Clean the bottom of each reservoir with a screwdriver and tissue until they are CLEAN. Attach the power bleeder and have at it. Don't let the reservoir fluid get TOO LOW or you risk getting air into the lines.

Hey Mark, The only thing I would hesitate to do was use a tissue in the reservoir. the tissue cotton left behind becomes part of the problem for the next bleed. I use a recently retired toothbrush and extra brake fluid then suck out the residue before putting fresh stuff in. I had a contaminated front brake reservoir ruin my day at a race day event. (no damage, but shortened my track time and at 250 for the day i was not happy)
