Looking to purchase one of the one person bleeding kits out there. Any opinions regarding the Eeibleed vs the unit IPD seel would be appreciated.

Thanks

Phil,

I bought an Eezibleed about 2 weeks ago and it really does work well. You can get one from:

Auto Expert Products

2574 NW 29th Drive

Boca Raton, FL 33434

$29.95 + 3.00 for shipping.

The fellows name is John and he ships it out 2 day priority mail when he gets your order. I mailed my order and check on a Saturday and got my Eezibleed the following Friday.

Good luck,

Alan Carlo

I bought one 2 weeks ago and wonder why I did not get one earlier. Just be sure and limit air supply pressure to 25 ft lbs max. It also saves you from having to waylay someone to pump the pedal!

I have NOT tried the IPD system but have tried a similar

vacuum device and it didn't work very well for me.

What did work well was to take an old brake line,

put a hole in a spare master cylinder cap that the

threaded portion would fit through, put nuts and washers

on both sides (inside and outside) tight enough to seal,

and apply about 15 - 20 psi compressed air to the reservoir,

making sure that both parts always have plenty of fluid in

them. (If one runs out, you get to start over.)

Then you can bleed in the normal sequence and the

pressure stays constant on both sides so your isolation

valve doesn't activate and confuse you.

This is a homemade version of a device shown in

some factory manuals. Sure beats pump, hold, let go,

pump again, etc.
