I’ve tried to fill the fluid on classic convertibles several time without this Bleed Tool and made a mess. I wish I purchased it sooner.

Doesn’t come with heavy red plastic bottle like shown, it’s clear and THINN like a milk jug. Won’t take much abuse before leaking.

This device saved my 100’s of dollars in service fees. Great.

The unit worked well. It topped of the fluid as it should. HOWEVER, nowhere in the instructions is there any warning that, if your system still has brake fluid in it, DO NOT USE DOT 4 FLUID. I read everything twice to assure that I didn’t miss anything. After I started topping off the system, the pump stopped working. A quick call to a very helpful guy at Convertible Service revealed that DOT 4 is synthetic and does NOT lubricate the pump. As a result, my pump is now burned up… Another $240 for an easily avoided mistake…

Got a 1967 Pontiac Bonneville Convertible. Top stuck in down position. This solved my problem perfectly. The instructions are very clear and easy to follow. Had it hooked up in a couple minutes and had my top back to working 100% shortly thereafter. Highly recommend this product and company!

I like this product. It bleed the lines and filled the hydraulic solenoid. It seemed to work good. I wish I had more use for it than this one project, but it made things easier for sure.
