Pretty happy with it hopefully it works if not 12 bucks down the trash lol
Add a quick disconnect between the master cylinder reservoir cap and tube and you'll be a real baller!

Not a problem if you use the pressure bleed/flush method. That's what I do with my pressure bleeder. I just use it to pressurize the master cylinder reservoir, and if I need more fluid I just take the bleeder off and refill the reservoir.
