Dumb brake question
I'm going to flush my brake fluid so I got some speed bleeders to make it easier, my dumb question is this: Will a lot of brake fluid come out when I remove the stock bleeders? I don't want to mess up my pretty yellow calipers.

You should not lose much just make sure the res cap is off and you dont touch let anyone touch the peddle. Also keep in mind gravity is cool and all but not when you are trying to keep fluid in a system. So raise the caliper up as high as you can before you swap the bleeders.

I swapped the bleeders with minimal incident, I didn't even take the wheels off! Those speedbleeders are awesome by the way.
