There's a copper washer either side of the banjo fitting Dave, check the exploded view on AJ Sutton website.

A piece of pipe with a one way valve works a treat

you don't have to mess about doing the bolt up

 never tried it with out them  but asume the holes int he bolt have to line up with the center for the fluid to run ok if one is missing it may obstruct the hole ?

 just thought if the washer on top would force it to line up fine ? but ig on bottom maybe would not line up ?  also will  one missing allow air in or a bad seal

Got a back brake again , usin syringe i sucked the fluid thru !
worked lovely am a happy oapdt rider lol
before i did that tho i removed rear brake line from caliper there was fluid thru wen i pressed rear brake so alls good there
i tried thru brake nipple and came out of bolt hole so no blockage
What i did find tho is that its very important to av copper washers on as after fittin a new top n bottom there was a proper flow out of nipple not just odd bubble
So i think all my trouble was at the banjo bolt n pipe not alignin properly !
must mention NEV hes been extremly helpful and patient and ive made a good friend doing so
THANKS NEV
Dave

Absolutely no problem Dave, glad I could help mate, even more pleased you didn't go buying one of those daft priced bleed systems that are on Ebay.
