Having read through all these posts I have found this to be an intresting debate, not that I am any good at bleeding my Bongo: I leave that to Ady. One thing that surprises me is that there have been no comments or imput so far from our Russian friends on how they go about it. Many of them including DemonAV appear to be highly qualified and streets ahead of us in the game, I guess that they need to be with the conditions in which they run their Bongos.

I used to use my version of the factory method as used by MHO in Japan...... but now.... Vacuum method all the way.... but as you all know the vacuum method requires an air compressor and not many home mechanics have one....
