Moneymanager: Thanks for the thorough description. Two questions on your method:
1) Why do you need so much plastic tubing? Wouldn't three or four feet work as well, as long as the top of the tube was higher than the MC to avoid spillage? I'm thinking I can use some blue tape to hold the (clean) tubing to the fender while I wait for the fluid to seek it's own level;

2) In order to do a brake system flush, could I use the same set up, but drop the end of the tubing down into a receptacle for the old fluid while I wait for the new, clear fluid to emerge?

I've worked on cars for decades, and never heard of gravity-bleeding until joining this forum. I'm itching to try this out now...
