Forget vacuum bleeding. You can never tell when you're done because of the air leakage at the bleeder valves. For the best thing in brake bleeders (build-it yourself!), take a look at http://www.apexcone.com/Bleeder/bleeder.html The really nice thing about this is that this bleeder, although designed for a BMW, works just fine on a DMC (same Girling master cylinder!). Build it for about $20. This is a PRESSURE bleeder which beats the daylights out of attempting to vacuum bleed. I added an o- ring at the cap, be sure it's tight or you get a mess.
