Another nicely put together instructional video, Andy. I'm currently restoring my 1972 midget and have pretty much all of the passenger side of the body to weld the panel's onto, so I'm a wee bit away from this task. As always, I look forward to the next exciting instalment of AMGA. Happy 2023.

Nice vid Andy. This is the first job I attempted on my Sprite 45 years ago. Once installed it took me 3 days to bleed it. With the Eezibleed thing I can do it in ten minutes now. I made up a remote bleed using some brake pipe. I also use a 50/50 mix of automatic transmission fluid and Acetone on rusted parts.

Lovely! I think this is my next jib as the clutch is not engaging and I still have fluid in the reservoir.

Nice instructional video. Handy. When I tried to add a new bleeder to the slave, the bleeder didn't fit, wrong threads! Maybe for a 1275 engine when I have a 1500, and I wound up draining the whole system onto the floor. Then I got to learn how to bleed solo, yay. Hopefully that remote bleeder does the job!

My 4 gears work, but my reverse doesn't. My pops messed it up. I would love to learn how to do just that. Or is that what this video is about? Im just here to learn to fix my midget! Please help.

It could well be just that it needs more of a bleed again. As I had trouble selecting some but not all!

Yes first thing to go on my midget. My parents laughing at my purchase and me wedging myself between the seat and steering wheel to that stupid little window by the pedals. The amount of times had to get out to let the blood get away from my head. Absolutely shafted by engineers.

This is a really good video man I just did this on my recently past grandfathers 1970 midget and sm I did differently if you ever have to do the slave again there’s just barely enough room to reach your hand up and around the trans and that frame to get that top bolt in without the notch definitely a little bit more tricky but you can do it now I just have to struggle bleeding it wish me luck
