Seattle people - looking for a motiv brake bleeder
Hi folks I just realized (I know it's totally my fault) that I don't have the right brake bleeder pump from motive (the one I have is for Porsches). Anyone in Seattle area have one I can borrow tomorrow? Or any other options for doing a self brake flush? Have track on Saturday. Thanks!

I quit using the motiv bleeder after spilling Motul RBF and Castrol SRF a handfull of times because I couldn't get the cap to seal correctly on my old vette.
Believe it or not I use this $10 tool from amazon to bleed my brakes. They're meant for motorcycles but they work PERFECTLY for the brembos on our cars. I bled the brakes by myself a few times with this little tool on my Vette with the Z07 Carbon Ceramics. Just attach it to the bleeder, crack it up, and pump the pedal. Since you need to get this done by Saturday I don't know what to say, maybe they have a similar tool at your local auto parts store? Here's the link https://www.amazon.com/Motorcycle-Cl...=brake+bleeder |

Wow seems quite a find. So it prevents air from getting in and u just pump the pedal to bleed?
