Sure doesn't sound like something I'd want to do with _my_ brakes. Any
moisture, oil, dirt, etc. from the air line is going to be permanently in your
brake and clutch.
I had no trouble at all with the reputed 'microbubble' thing on my brakes. The
only precautions I took were to use a clean screwdriver to pour the new brake
fluid down (so it didn't foam in the reservoir), and then take a break (no pun
intended) before bleeding, so that any bubbles that did form had a chance to
rise.
