Motive Power Blender hose

Why are you guys jacking the pressure to 10 psi or more, all you need is positive pressure 3 psi will do.

I blend using shop air, and a low pressure regulator.  a couple of psi later, and all your blending needs are frappe'd.

but I had to get out of the car to move it from bleeder to bleeder and sit back down to pump the pedal each time.  It was exhausting, compared to using the pressure blender.  Join the club, Jim!

The exercise is good for one's health.

Thanks, John.  Those are pretty cool.  Coincidentally, at seven bux a pop, they'd cost $56 do do all four corners, which is about what I paid for the Motive.  You'd still have to get in and out of the car six times for the front and two more for the rear, as opposed to simply moving from corner to corner until you're done.  The other nice thing about the Motive is that it can be used on your other cars, as long as you buy, or make a cap for the reservoir.  

 

Here's the one I made to use on my old Suburban.  The mayo jar withstood the pressure test.

 

 

 

Hopefully that's enough Motivation to get Jim to join the club.

That's more tubing than in a hospital intensive care unit.

I no longer use my Motive. I switched to a vacuum bleeder and have been much happier. I use this one.

That vacuum bleeder looks like a better option.  I just ordered one.  Thanks,
