get yourself a bit of soft rubber pipe that fits tight over the bleed nipple cut pipe about 12 inches long block one end of the pipe with a bolt then with a very sharp blade make a small slit in the pipe near the end of the bolt then a small plastic bottle drill a hole in the lid and pull the pipe thru the lid keeping the bolt in the bottle put the other end on the bleed nipple and slacken nipple and pump peddal till no air coming out tighten nipple job done
hope you understand this

For future use....
Fill up reservoir
Clear tube and bottle on the bleed nipple with spanner
Pump the pedal 8 or 10 times and hold down
open and close the bleed nipple
pump another 6 times and hold down
repeat the last 2 steps until fluid comes through/air is out.
Remember to keep the fluid level topped up!
