Works great

2 man method brake bleeding failed miserably on my 2003 Ford Taurus. Had to take my car to auto shop to have it done correctly. With this unit I bleed brakes effortlessly. Firm pedal every time, no bubbles in brake lines. Works great on 2003 Ford Taurus, 2000 Nissan Quest and 2011 Nissan Rogue. I use it also on my 2019 Honda Pilot but with CTA 7030 adapter. Again, no leaks and effortless one man brake bleeding with firm pedal and no air in brake lines. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Bleeder worked great for me. The cap fit my 2006 Subaru STi master cylinder perfectly, no leaks, tight fit. Comes with large and small o-ring, I used the smaller one.Did a full flush and bled the brakes three times. Twice with just this power bleeder and again with this power bleeder plus also slowly pumping the brake pedal. Got every little bubble out, combined with new rotors and pads the brake pedal is absolutely rock hard. For $115bucks its an excellent product.

Product works well on Hyundai and Mitsubishi brake reservoir, using a 3 tab cap. Provided in the kit was a thinner O rings which fits snugly to the brake reservoir, creating a good seal.Do note brake fluid will leak from the brass fitting, some PTFE tape will seal it as prescribed by Motive Products FAQ page.The additional 6” tube was simply too short to do anything neatly at the bleed nipple end.

Makes bleeding brakes by yourself super simple and easy. I’ve bleed brakes using pneumatic bleeders, vacuum pumps and the old fashioned two man method, this pressure bleeder is hands down now my favorite method. I purchased this kit #0107 to use on my 08 Ford Expedition, the adapter is a tight fit at first I thought it was the wrong adapter at first but all it takes is a little wrangling to get on and once set onto the reservoir a 45 degree turn locks it snugly into place. I marked my adapter with a mark from a silver paint pen so I could visualize the 45 degree turn on and off. Getting the adapter to release takes some torque and I’m not able to get a good grip with my hands so I found that channel locks work perfectly. The mark I put on the adapter was helpful to know the cap position to keep from twisting to far in either direction. Don’t bother purchasing the Brake fluid catch bottle, make your own using a water bottle and a piece of 5/16 hose purchased at any hardware store. Drill two holes in the bottle cap, one for the hose and a smaller second one for venting and you have a catch bottle for cheap that will last you years.

The good: this makes bleeding your brake system a piece of cake. No pumping the peddle, no twisting the bleeder screw in and out, and no doubts about the result: clean, bubble-free system and a rock hard peddle. All in a matter of minutes, assuming your bleeders aren't stuck.The bad: there is no way this was going to fit the master cylinder of my 2001 Ranger with the supplied 1/8" thick o-ring. The o-ring provides a seal between a cylindrical core of the pressure cap and the wall of the master cylinder throat. The tolerance is too tight for the ring to compress into the space provided. After struggling with it for about 45 minutes, enough was enough. Solution: replace o-ring with a 3/32" inch version in the same 1 1/8 I.D. size. The lid now goes on easily yet firmly and held pressure at 15 pounds without a problem for the duration of the bleed.This might be a fitment issue on my particular MC. YMMV. Given the amount of complaints over this issue regarding the Ford version, I think it might behoove Motive Products to include a thinner ring to give customers the option or replacing the thicker ring when it is not ever going to work.Once it fits, it's a five star product.

I bought this unit to bleed the brakes on my Ford and, although I normally never write product reviews, I decided to write this one because I think the product worked really well and the company deserves some business.The unit looks like it's a suprisingly decent quality tool. I was expecting a cheap throwaway like one gets so often now, but this unit was nicely put together and everything fit and worked really well. It's not going to be up to industrial specs, and is simple in design, but well thought out, i think.There seem to be several variations or models of this bleeder, so go to the manufacturer website to see which unit fits your car/mcyl (they have a cross ref chart there).Beyond that, this unit is really easy to use and makes bleeding brakes a one man job. Fill the unit with bfluid, screw the top/pump assembly on the bottle, put the adaptor on the car's Mcyl, pump the unit up to 15 psi, and start making your way around to all the wheel cylinders/calipers - work from far to near in relation to the Mcyl when bleeding.I went through a lot of bfluid in order to flush everything thoroughly so I had to repressurize (pump up) the cannister a few times(as is expected), but i think that you get a lot of flow before you have to repressurize the cannister.Other than monitoring the pressure from time to time, it was a simple matter of cracking the line at each wheel cylinder/caliper and watching for clean flowing fluid without bubbles.By the way, there is a video on Youtube, which i found by accident, showing how the unit works. That is how i came across this machine in the first place.The unit is a piece of cake to use, works really well and is totally worth the money, in my opinion. If you decide to buy it and then get another car, it seems that you can just get a new adapter to fit that new car, which is a nice feature as well.
