My Curas need a bleed, and while I've got the mineral oil, digging in my box of bits I have no syringes etc. There's a bunch of third party bleed kits online apparently suitable for Formula mineral oil brakes - any recommendations or any to avoid?

I have the Park Tool Bleed kit but the bleed port is the common thread, you could use one for Rock Shox or Shimano
