It looks like one can place a bleed tube through this tool and direct the brake fluid into a jar. This sounds much better!!!

To make the Bleeding Job, (excuse the pun) of the rear brakes easier on the Ace, you can buy longer Bleed Valves, Not sure if ACOC used to hold them in stock for club members and haven't a part number or source of supply.
Sure makes the job easier and cleaner. As the bleed tube can be easily fitted and one can still get the spanner on the bleednipple. Without the air going blue and the garage floor and surroundings dripping with bleeding fluid.
I will have a word or two with some of AC racing fraternity during this afternoon and post more details tonight.
In the meantime If any Ace owner can confirm supplier and part number it would be appreciated by many Ace owners World Wide.
