Review on πŸ”§ Capri Tools CP21029 Brake Vacuum Bleeder by Alfredo Nosrac

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Better than mityvac (professional technician)

Okay so I'd say this is the best vacuum bleeder I've ever used. I am both a master technician and a platinum certified Honda technician. I use this remedy at least once a day. It has such a strong vacuum that it actually pulls the piston back into the caliper (which is perfectly normal). I spend thousands of dollars on tools and usually don't stray too far from the main suppliers (Snap on and Matco). I used to have a Mitivak pump but it broke so I needed a different pump. That is why this leveling is better than the Mitiwak leveling. It holds up more than Mityvak, it has a drain at the top (Mityvak needs to be unscrewed from the bottom, it seems ok but here's the problem, there's a big o-ring that's keeping it hard after several months of using this one O-ring that swells with oil and it's very hard to find a replacement), it's a small O-ring and I was able to find a replacement very easily and almost for free. This one is also about $50 cheaper. Discussing this and humbly buying this ad mitivatz will save you some money.

Pros
