Hi Everyone

Looking for recommendations on brake bleeders / power bleeders. What have you got, where did you get it, and do you like it? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/bye1.gif)

I use Motiv. Since most of my cars are VW based, I have adapted a stock lid. I drilled a hole and epoxied in a dual barb fitting.
I put a small extension on the barb that is inside the reservoir. When you released the pressure, it sucks about an inch of the fluid back up. This keeps all the fluid that would normally be all the way up to the cap, lower. No clean up except the bleeder.
