Hi Doug.

Please don't take this as gospel, but I've been told the correct way to
do antilock
breaks is to open up the bleeding valve, and then use a vice grip to
pinch the brake
line.

I've heard this before and would never do it (pinching the line that
is). Even though the lines are tiny the amount of pressure inside them
is very high and forcibly deforming a high pressure hose doesn't sound
good to me.
