Thanks in advance,

long time no talk!
how you been?
 usually i just use a clear hose/tubing that fits
on the blead nut .
drain  the reservoir don't get any fluid on plastic !!!! it eats it alive.
put end of hose in jar and open nut.
pour fresh fluid in res and work b.lever
 hold lever in  and tighten nut

maybe harbor freight for the vac? on sale for $25.99

the cheapest way  is to buy 18" of 1/4" vinyl hose .
 you will use a bit more fluid this way but  for
a vac pump you have to do 20 or more flushes for
it to break even..
