EEzibleed problems

Post by smoker »

Just bought a Gunson eezibleed and tried it today. Unfortunately half way through the procedure, the clear plastic tube which is inside the fluid container and sticks down into the liquid, detached from the nipple on the lid. This meant that the tyre was simply pushing air into the car's brake lines. I only realised whan the fluid level in the bottle wasn't going down despite me draining fluid from the car's brakes. Had to do it all again and used nearly 2 litres of fluid to try and get all the air out.

On inspection that plastic tube is a very loose fit even dry, but when soaked in fluid it varely stays connected under its own weight.

(Sorry this only makes sense if you've tried one of these).

Not impressed. Have written to Gunson about this - anyone else had a problem?

Cheers

Years ago I had one (as in about 10 maybe 15 years ago) although the problem I had was the caps popping off the reservoir :(
