 Better than a helper April 3, 2009

I needed something to bleed my older European cars. I got an '83 944 and an '85 VW Vanagon. On these cars you can not do the job correctly without a bleeding system. It works nicely on these cars with the supplied attachments. However I do the bleeding process a little different than the instructions. I DO NOT fill the "Power Bleeder" ("PW") reservoir with brake fluid I only fill the car's brake fluid reservoir. I Attach the "PW" unit and pump up the pressure (see your manual for the proper pressure). I then bleed the system. I checking the pressure and re-pump if I have to. I keep an eye on the car's brake fluid reservoir and only add fluid to the reservoir not the "PW". It takes a little more time and you have to disconnect and reattach the "PB" to fill the reservoir but no mess.
 OK, but not great November 19, 2007

I'm sold on pressure bleeding - I like the method, and this tool does fit the bill in that category. I've tried vacuum bleeding with a MightyVac vacuum pump as well as those venturi-types that connect to your air compressor (not willing to use my A/C electric vacuum pump for this task) - I ALWAYS got bubbles in the output stream, especially in the rear lines, even when great care was taken to ensure a good seal of the vinyl tubing on the bleeder valve.
That said, this pressure bleeder attempts to be too universal, and makes for a potentially messy solution. Getting the cap adapter to seal properly takes a lot of fiddling. The penalty for a leaky seal is brake fluid all over, which is a *big* negative. It *does* work once you get it set up. I just had very limited confidence in the seal. Also, the pressure gauge on my unit was damaged during shipping, so I'll need to replace that before I use it again, so I can get a real indicator of pressure - I just pumped it up enough so that brake fluid would flow out of the lines as needed.
So I give it 3 stars because it is a fantastic way of bleeding the brakes without a helper, but getting it setup properly is overly finicky IMO. If the seal concern were eliminated, this tool would be an absolute pleasure to use. This tool does leave the M/C reservoir overfilled, so I still use my MightVac to suck out the extra!
