Yeah it is...I made my girlfriend be my pedal pusher once before I got my power bleeder...doing it by hand made my hands hurt.

I had great results with the Motive bleeder on the clutch and am going to do the brakes soon. Did you guys leave the pressure at approx 10psi on the brakes as well? Thanks!

Yep...I did my brakes right after the clutch. It worked great there too 10 psi sounds like what I used for them as well.

I was going to ask the same question what psi everyone uses on the brakes and clutch? 10 psi then cant you go a little higher on the brakes?

Another question when you have the bleeder open does the psi go down quick? How often do you have to repump it?

I used about 9-10 psi to do both...I didn't have to pump it up for the clutch, and only had to pump it once or twice to do my entire brake system.

dang why didnt i find this when i installed my clutch, the power bleeder and the extended bleeder line im pissed at my self , i dont feel like taking everthing apart just to do this mod, but ima prolly buy it and hold on to it for when the tranny is pulled.

this should be a stickie, get the powerbleeder, and the extended bleeder line, when u do a clutch install or when u pull the tranny

I ordered Model # 0108 for my brakes (includes everything else like the bottle and such), and adapter # 1100, which is the European adapter that fits 45mm threaded hydraulic fluid reservoirs (that'll take care of your clutch master cylinder).
