brake fluid flush tool
Hey guys, I'm in the market for a tool to flush brake fluid. I have a 33gal air compressor, and I'm debating on what tool to get. I work at an autoshop, but I don't want to spend the money on a Snap-on or Mac unit. I won't be using it that often, but I wouldnt mind doing a few side jobs with it to make some of the money I put into it, back

i'm shopping around and most of them are the pump style that you place at the master cyl. I want the one that sucks fluid from the bleeder at the caliper. Anyone?

Speed Bleeders allow a complete brake flush.
What you are hinting at without actually saying: is you want a very easy power assisted way of doing it.
So explain yourself so we do not have to assume what you want.
Since you work at a shop, you should know what is available.
Can you search the web?

Haha, true. I work at a shop and we have one, but my boss doesn't let me use it unless it's for my car only. I do a lot of side jobs in my garage and I'm trying to figure how much to spend. Maybe after a few brake fluid flushes it might pay off itself.
What method do you ugys use to flush out brake fluid? Which style of tool do you guys use?

strike up the paean
two people - wrench and a piece of clear hose
one person - speedbleeders
no reason for a power assisted system unless you are servicing a large number of cars. the slowest method (2 people manual) still only takes maybe 10-20 minutes.
