Suggestion

Tool Pants, looking at your pic, it looks like you put a one-way valve into your brake fluid reservoir cap, and are using an air hose to supply the pressure.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Who makes a good bleeder for our cars and where would I get one. Are these available at local auto stores or do you have to order them? Thinking of doing this myself in the future. Thanks.

POST 2Original post

Jake, I see the Motive power bleeder at the track all of the time, and had achanve to use it once. Worked well. Performance sells it, as do a bunch of other online vendors. Try googling.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks...just ordered one direct. That's the one I've seen around too. Couldn't remember the name though.

POST 4Original post

You won't regret the purchase. I use it exclusively several times a year. While you are at it, order the brake fluid on-line as well. Saves on shipping. Blue or gold are the same. I use the whole can each time.

POST 6Original post

I too use a Motive, and I love it. Even a moron like me can flush fluid from all eight nipples by myself in about 40 minutes. And it'll work with any modern European car. Tool Pants, looking at your pic, it looks like you put a one-way valve into your brake fluid reservoir cap, and are using an air hose to supply the pressure. I presume that the pressure is regulated to no more than, say, 20 psi? I've been told that running higher pressures will cause damage to the braking system. vty, --Dennis

POST 7Original post

A metal valve stem for a wheel and a hole I drilled on the plastic cap. Exactly 1.5 bar or 21.751. The pressure is regulated on my compressor or you can split or pop off the plastic reservoir. I have collected about a dozen devices to bleed brakes over the years. I also have the Motive and to the right is the adapter for Asian cars.

POST 8Original post

Jake, I have a Motive power Bleeder you can borrow or we could do your brakes in my Garage I have a fully equiped Garage tools.. jacks... Compressor ect. Let me know. I just purchased a set of Calipers on ebay I plan on Powder coating them Red then swapping out mine so I will be doing this type of work on my car soon...

POST 9 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Eric, Thanks.....I just bought the bleeder online this afternoon so I'll try it myself. Good to know for future work though. I have quite a few tools and have tackled the 3rd radiator install myself so I don't think this will be nearly as difficult. Although, I can turn any simple task into a complicated rat's nest. We'll see. Jake
