@chak is right that you don’t need the kit.
However, on the rear especially I found the process frustrating. On at least two bikes trying to do this without the kit there was difficulty getting enough pressure.
With the kit, just pump the vacuum handle and keep pumping it when you open and then close the bleed nipple. It sucks the fluid through. Job done.

Bugger, I feared as much.
I’ve never bothered with hydraulics on my bicycles as I’ve no idea what I’m doing with them. Oh well, I’ll get one of those kits and watch a YouTube video.
MOT is due in October (it’s first ever I believe) so I best get it fixed!
