Q: Does the POWER BLEEDER work with all types of cars?
A: We manufacture adapters for most cars. Please refer to our application guide for additional information.
Q: Why do I need to bleed my brakes?
A: Brake fluid absorbs water from the atmosphere, lowering its boiling point and causing corrosion. Particulate contamination--microscopic particles of rust and rubber--hastens wear of moving components. This is why manufacturers and mechanics recommend fully flushing hydraulic fluid annually. In addition, whenever the hydraulic system has been opened (e.g. when a hydraulic system component is changed), the system must be bled of air.
Q: Why should I pressure bleed?
A: Pressure bleeding provides a safe and effective way to remove trapped air and other contaminants from the hydraulic system. A Motive Products POWER BLEEDER is easy to pressurize, and holds enough fluid for a complete system flush (most vacuum bleeders require repeated refilling of the reservoir.

Q: How does the POWER BLEEDER work?
A: The POWER BLEEDER works just like professional pressure bleeders. A tank containing hydraulic fluid is attached to the hydraulic system via a special adapter. The tank is then pressurized. When one of the bleed valves is opened, old or contaminated fluid is expelled as new fluid from the pressure tank is added. For more information, please click
