The MityVac is great for testing...I found it was not so hot for brake bleeding...too much hand pumping, small catch bowl...PITA. We were flushing the system so there was alot of pumping going on. Quickly went back to the 2 people system, one the brake pedal,one on the bleed valve....much faster.

Now I have seen those systems that actually pressurize the brake system, that would be pretty slick....but brake jobs aren't that common or too big a pain to invest in such a system for myself.

But you're right, it will work for bleeding brakes.
