which adapter for motive brake bleeder for a 95 legacy


Recommended Posts

my master cyl looks like this so the common answer i found through searching which was the 3 prong for adapter which won't work.

the pics on the motive site are small and the descriptions don't really give any dimensions on the adapter.

i was looking at that one but then i started looking through the other screw on ones they have but without any dimensions to go on i couldn't narrow it down.

 

also had another thought to take a stock cap from the junkyard drill a hole in the middle and make a home made setup.

Taking a stock cap and drilling a hole in it doesn't work, you're close though. I drilled a hole and inserted a valve stem in a stock junkyard cap for my setup. I thought I was so clever. Turns out the rubber gasket on the stock cap is vented, brake fluid was everywhere! I felt like a dejected Gilligan.

I removed the vented black gasket from the cap and used a Fluidmaster "tank to bowl" toilet gasket as a seal. http://www.fluidmaster.com/our-products/toilet-parts/tank-to-bowl-empaque.html. I picked it up at Home Depot for a couple bucks. It was a perfect fit. Take the gasket with you to match the diameter because they had a few to chose from.

RIP 96 Legacy 2.2 4EAT lost reverse @ 374,000 miles
