        You could try it, but a couple of cautions.  Check the ABS, and make sure brake
      fluid doesn't dissolve it or soften it.  Keep your air pressure low- ABS is
      usually used for drain lines, and I don't know what suction will do.  I think
      it will work.  I watched Richard Pike's link to the Harbor Freight bleeder, and
      I think you ought to order one.

       Hello Kolbers,
      
       The November 2016 issue of Kit Plane magazine has an article
       about building a Homemade Compressed Air Brake Bleeder
       which seems to this neophyte brake installer like a good
       idea. The directions call for building the reservoir out of
       3 PVC pipe. Without traveling 50 plus mile, all that
       is available locally is 3 ABS. I wonder if there is a
       plastics expert in the group that can tell me of a reason
       not to build this pressurized reservoir out of ABS pipe?
      
       Thanks for your thoughts,
      
       Nick Cassara
