I first used my old Rimac pressure bleeder but still had air in the system. I used the V-12 and reversed bleed the system. I had a firm pedal the first time and no mess. Great tool for an individual working in their garage. Plus,got a great price at AutoAnything.

The v-12 brake kit solved my problem. It allowed us to get a full pedal on my 75 corvette. The best investment we could have made. The tool was easy to use and helped us get my car on the road again.

I was one of those people that had someone pumping the brake to get the brakes bled.But I would saw Phoenix V-12 on T.V. I saw Stacy David using the tool on his show.I was impressed by it.So I took the plunge and bought it.A few weeks before I found my brake lines on my old dodge van were rusted thru.So I knew I had a tough job ahead of me and definitely was going to need to try this tool out.Well it worked great.I plan on changing my brake lines on my car so this tool is going to get some use.

This product worked so well. I am going to recommend it to everyone I know. Once you understand how to use it. (It comes with a great tutorial DVD and written instructions w/diagrams.) It took me less than five minutes to bleed my clutch hydraulic system. I don't know how I got along all these years without it.

This is truly a one person job that will really get all the air out of your brake lines. I put it together in 10 minutes and 45 minutes later I had flushed all the old brake fluid from the entire brake system and ended up with completely clear and air free brake fluid throughout the system.

When pushing fluid through a small nipple (Miata) in the reverse bleed procedure, it leaked around the the adapter that connects to the nipple. It didn't leak at the nipple; it leaked where the adapter connected to the tubing. A small clamp at that spot stopped the leak but that shouldn't be necessary. I did not have this problem bleeding brakes on a '93 Ford van because the bleed nipples are bigger and the tubing can connect directly to the nipple.

Whats the proper way to bleed with cutting brake. What corner do you start from first? Cutting brake has bleed screw .Master cylinder to cutting brake then to left rear , right rear . Duel m/c front left and right . Dune buggy all new with disc brakes.Thank you. Mark

With this type of system you start with the bleed screw farthest away from the master cylinder and work your way to the closest bleed screw. Since you have a dual m/c, just treat each m/c as its own system and bleed from farthest to closest. Thank you
