This is basically how I did mine... used a $6 siphon pump with the correct measure length of tube down the fork instead though...Didn't have to lift out the tube till it stopped pulling anything, so no drips!
Oh, and I left out the cut-off shirts, beards, and cursing LOL

haha yeah, well that old guy talks a lot of crap about "yankees". My respect for some one who still use's the term "yankee" other then the ball team is low. That whole north/south stuff happened be for any of us so we have no right to have a grudge vs either. However i give credit on good idea's even if distasteful.
