Motive Products1107 Late Model Ford Compatible 3-Prong Adapter, Compatible Power Bleeder Attachments

Used on a 2019 STI- despite other reviews, the coupler to the master cylinder seals perfectly and easily.To get it to seal, install the oring, and look at the coupler, and line up the tabs on the coupler with the indents on the master cylinder, and press down, you will feel it settle in place, THEN turn the cap clockwise until it stops. Do not press and turn at the same time.That's it. No fights, simple.Also- put some liquid thread seal on the brass threaded fitting to ensure against pressure leaks. Get yourself a good bleed bottle and you're set.

I got tired of my wife's complaining every time I bled the brakes on one of my trucks (3), which seem to have more than their share of brake issues. Today I went to work on a Ranger that was pulling severely right when braking; correcting made me look like a drunk. I figured it was air in the driver's side line. I started on the passenger side because it's a longer run and a few bubbles came out and then a lot. I've seen this before, it's air sucking in past the bleeder screw. I don't know of any way to prevent this other than opening the screw to get a barely perceptible flow. I've thought of daubing the screw with Vaseline but I'm not sure that wouldn't also get sucked in (I doubt it) and I'm not sure where it would end up if it did.Someone please try it and let me know how it worked (you know; "I'm not gonna eat it, let Mikey try it").Or if a true mechanic has the answer, please post a reply.Then I went to the driver side and expected to see some bubbles but only got about 1/4" of fluid into the drain tube; the line was blocked. I left the screw open a bit and pressed on the pedal and it took a great deal of force to depress, confirming a blocked line. My wife never knew the pedal should go down easily so she never told me. If there were no problem, I could have easily bled the brakes by myself but, bonus, this disclosed a blocked line that I never would have found with my wife working the pedal.My only issue with this unit is that the tubing from the pump is of a fairly large diameter, more than necessary. And being about three feet long, it takes quite a bit of fluid just to fill the tube before attaching the cap to the reservoir. The tubing has crimp clamps which may require a larger diameter, so that may be the reason. In any case, it's a minor issue.I see that another reviewer complained about a 8" long tube. I'm sure he was referring to the bleeder bottle as the pump unit has a 2-3 foot tube. I would not buy the bleeder bottle. I did and the only good thing I can say about it is that it has a narrow tube made of very pliable (surgical?) tubing that stretches to fit any size bleeder valve. I have a lot of various tubing from Home Depot and don't need this. Cheap tubing into any bottle will suffice. It's best if the tubing reaches the bottom of the bottle.Edit: In reading other reviews, he was referring to the tube included with this unit and he's correct, it's too short. My comments on the bleeder bottle still stand; it's a pass.Summary: This thing is great. It definitely makes a one-man bleed job a piece of cake and, in my case, disclosed a problem that a two person job wouldn't have. So four thumbs up from here, two from me and two from my long-suffering wife.Addendum: I bought the Ford adapter and it's perfect. It uses a rubber O ring and takes a bit of force to get on and off, just be careful not to crack the reservoir. Also, visually line up the three tabs before trying to push this on. It takes significant force and I'm not able to tell whether the tabs aren't lined up or if it just needs more force. You can't do it by feel. Lube the ring with brake fluid first and go slow, work it gently but FIRMLY. I haven't bought any other adapters, but it's nice to know I won't need to buy a complete unit for a different vehicle.

I purchased this to bleed brakes on a 13' Subaru Outback. Initially I was individually suctioning at each caliper which took time as I had to take each tire off/on. The motive bleeder made bleeding brakes a quick task; the cap for the brake reservoir fit tight, which I am sure is the desired effect for an air tight seal. And once I checked to ensure I had a tight seal, I went ahead with my bleed. The only issue I had was with the coupling that joins the bleeder with the cap; it was initially leaking because I was ignorant enough to hand-tighten it thinking it would suffice under pressure. I then tightened it further with wrenches but it still leaked because I failed to realize the coupling did not have thread tape (all my fault). However remedying my self inflicted issues everything worked fine.The unit maintained its pressure prior to opening the caliper bleeder valves. It feels sturdy and of solid material. There is another model that has a similar style reservoir cap but it is made of aluminum; the 107 comes with a plastic cap. I am satisfied with the money spent on this and how it functioned.The hardest part of using this unit was removing the cap from the brake reservoir. It was on there TIGHT, and I knew this prior so what I did was mark the cap and reservoir once I fitted it on the reservoir, I then twisted it to seal. When done I twisted the cap so the markings aligned and using anything that has a 1" or so wide flat end worked around the cap to easily remove it without denting/damaging the reservoir.I made a unit similar to this years ago out of a weed sprayer, for an Altima and Civic, and it worked well (but the bottle was cheap and became brittle over time). However for the cost of this unit, and the fact that it comes with everything I need (no need to make/modify brake reservoir caps) it was worth the time saved.Something to note: this unit does not have a pressure release valve; to release the pressure you slowly unscrew the lid to the bleeder until all the air has escaped.

Worked well on 2014 F150. This is the way to go. Saw some reviews said it was difficult to install cap. It's a little snug, but it is supposed to hold pressure after all. I didn't have much difficulty. My main knock is the other caps for different vehicles are pricey.

Works great

Bleeder worked great for me. The cap fit my 2006 Subaru STi master cylinder perfectly, no leaks, tight fit. Comes with large and small o-ring, I used the smaller one.Did a full flush and bled the brakes three times. Twice with just this power bleeder and again with this power bleeder plus also slowly pumping the brake pedal. Got every little bubble out, combined with new rotors and pads the brake pedal is absolutely rock hard. For $115bucks its an excellent product.

Product works well on Hyundai and Mitsubishi brake reservoir, using a 3 tab cap. Provided in the kit was a thinner O rings which fits snugly to the brake reservoir, creating a good seal.Do note brake fluid will leak from the brass fitting, some PTFE tape will seal it as prescribed by Motive Products FAQ page.The additional 6” tube was simply too short to do anything neatly at the bleed nipple end.
