OOPS should be Centric 120-130

Yes I believe they are all the same. Probably all made by the same company just sold under different names. I took the plastic cap off my old mc and drilled a hole in the center and threaded it with a 1/8" npt tap. The brass fitting was threaded 1/8 male npt on one end and accepted a piece of polypropylene ice maker water line on the other. That leads to the top of a painter's pressure pot, (normally used to hold larger quantities of spray paint than a cup would), at the exit point of the suction line. Inside, Using brass fittings, I replaced the big paint suction tube with another 1/8" line that I can insert into a bottle of brake fluid. That way there is no cleanup of the pot required. Just place the bottle in the pot, insert the line and cover it with the lid. The air pressure in the pot will force the fluid up the tiny line at an acceptable rate. An air line from my compressor, with regulator set at or below 8 pounds, is hooked to the pot lid through another boss. There's also a shut off for brake fluid, so I can uncover the pot to be sure I still have fluid in there. Another threaded boss holds a standard pressure gauge to monitor the pressure in the pot at all times. Then turn it on and run around opening and closing the bleeders in sequence. I have a cap for the clutch MC made the same way. This is much better than the pressure system I bought. The secret really is in having the cap fit the MC correctly.
