I don't want to come off as a mity-vac expert or proponent, but I don't think this claim is correct. I have used the mity vac numerous times on ABS-equipped cars. The only issue I see with the method, as they point out on their own website, is that you can draw in some (very) tiny bubbles around the bleed screw threads. This is addressed by using teflon tape around the threads or by using the pedal-pal method for the final bleed, although I've never noticed the bubbles to impact pedal feel much anyway.
Maybe there were some early ABS systems that it didn't work on. Any additional info?
