I have used this type of brake bleeder many times, it is one person brake bleeding, draw out the old fluid out of the reservoir first, then top up and then you only have the fluid in the pipes to pull through, instead of all the old fluid in the reservoir, great for also pulling up fuel into diesel fuel filters. My garage that do my mots has never had a vacuum brake bleeder!! I am sure they won’t look back once they have used it once. They have a pressure bleeder but they can leak and make a mess. Highly recommend.

Nice idea, i bought this hoping for simply easy bleeding. In reality it doesn't really work. I've lent it out to some other friends but despite following the instructions meticulously they had much the same experience. Its been consigned to the gadgets that sound good but don't work shelf.

This worked well. I've previously used a pressure bleeder but you risk damaging the brake fluid reservoir on older cars. You need to be aware you will suck air into any leaks (as opposed to leaking out of course with a pressure bleeder) and so it has been a learning curve to judge what is happening from muck and air coming out of bleed nipple. One word of caution. It requires quite an airflow from your compressor and really needs a proper garage compressor; I guess this is just the nature of how it creates a vacuum from pressure. I have a small 25litre, about 5cfpm compressor and it worked hard; however I have a large diameter hose and it was successful. A mechanic friend (one man garage) has used the larger VS0203 for years and rates it as one of the best bits of equipment he's bought.Read full review

Purchased this to save my wife helping bleed the brakes. it works great connect it to your compressor and off you go, advice! copper grease your bleed nipples before starting to aid removal in the future
