Pressure bleeder question - steveo3002
when using a pressure brake bleeder does it matter if the drain hose is not submerged in fluid?

cant really see why it should be , but i've noticed to "how to's" say it should be

It gives a good indication of when fluid rather than air is coming out and if the pressure source failed you could get air drawn back up if it's not submerged.
