thanks for the input guys. i already made my own pressure bleeder and the piece i am having problems with is the cap i made which leaks around the fitting. also, the japanese cars i have will require special adapters which i know i can get from Motive, in fact, the Motive pressure bleeder with all the adapters they sell is around $80.
Motive Bleeder
i see at least someone has a suction type device (and yes i am interested in how you made it).
i'd like to hear from someone who has used both to weigh the pros and cons.
thanks
