    TurnerMotorsport Bleeder Bottle w/ Check Valve

    Has anyone tried this out? I was browsing brakes on TMS and I saw this. It definitely is a cheaper route than say the Motive Pressure Bleeder. I'm thinking of ordering one just for giggles to see if it works.

    Reminds me of the speed bleeder valves that you replace tthe bleeder bolt on the caliper but now its moved to the bottle itself.

  3. I am a bug fan of the other pressure based bleeders. I got one from Bavarian Auto and it's been great. My concern with this one is that there is always a theoretical chance of getting into the system unless the valve is exactly where the bleeder screw is.

    Yeah I have it. I've only used it once and I thought it worked great. I've read on other forums of people 'not trusting' the return valve and blah blah, but honestly, its perfect for a one-man bleed job. I say go for it, I know I'll be using mine again.

    Thanks for the review. I was planning to buy the Motive Euro Pressure Bleeder, but this is 1/3rd of the cost. I thought I give it a whirl.

    Yup. I actually have both and wound up using the TMS bottle to bleed the ZHP brakes. So easy and the bleed is still proving strong after 4+ months

    I just used the bleeder bottle with the check valve and it worked great! There was no bleed back. I tested the check valve myself by blowing through it, and it seemed to hold fine. I think it's great if you wanna do a bleed by yourself.

    A nice bump for a great product.

    I've been using this for my bleeds for all my cars and it is a very cheap way to get a full 4-corner bleed without the hassle of a 2nd person pumping away and saying PUMP and HOLD.
