I have used it a dozen times saved me many hours of frustration.

I watched a old bloke the other day pressure bleed a system he had a flat bit of metal with rubber stuck to one surface and a mag wheel rim valve fitted to it that he held firm over the reservoir he them used compressed air while his wife slowly pushed the clutch pedal down with the bleed screw open.

Just replaced the master/slave last weekend and for the last few years I have been using this SCA Suction Gun - Plastic, 400ml - Supercheap Auto Australia, just put a smaller piece of hose on the end, place it over the bleed nipple and pull on the handle slowly, it sucks the air out and oil through. Just keep it lower then the oil reservoir.It can be used for filling gearbox's transfer cases and bleeding brakes, Multi-tool and cheap.

Tried an expensive suction bleeder,nothing!Pulled cylinder out,cleaned and blew it out,reassembled it ,put fluid in resoirvoir,won't pump.Worked fine on donor.It's the late 94 changeover so can't get a kit for it.Still don't understand why it worked and then suddenly doesn't

Mate of mine had a similar issue brand new slave cylinder and we could get a firm pedal either after 3 days of trying turned out to be a bad seal in the new slave cylinder
