FWIW, Motive also sells a kit that has all of the different master cylinder caps with just one pressure tank.

I noticed that on their website, but each one sells for about $37 plus shipping. I see they hava a "universal" cap, but it looks a little cheesy. I may order one of theirs and then just get the caps for the different vehicles and add the hose and connector for home made adapters.....for less than $37!

Be sure to post pics & a parts listing of your pressure bleeder.

I am not a happy camper today. Speed Bleeder Dorman # 12705, 8mm x 1.25 x 28mm, fits 99 GM wheel cylinder, was ordered Wednesday afternoon and scheduled for delivery today. Vendor did not ship parts and now have estimated delivery by FedEx on the 24th. I have had the rear of the truck on jacks since last Friday, and cannot wait any longer. I cancelled the order (as I was p****d), and came home and bled brakes with a hose and bottle. Slapped wheels on and then started wiring on GlowShift gauges and pod. The gauges DID come in today!

I may come back and try speed bleeders later, but when I get time, I will most likely fabricate a power bleeder.
