![]() Looks like knock-offs or rebrands are available for about half that. The empty spaces are for late model Ford/Gm, LR/Jag, and the newer VAG design coolant bottles. Or power drain a system with a tiny petcock and large capacity. They make an add-on adapter which lets you pressure test with shop air as well. Or even just regular maintenance cooling flushes.Īstro pneumatic kit. Probably two must-have tools these days to do any sort of work relating to cooling systems, a big part of a car that tends to have issues after 100k miles. Whereas the other design uses a rubber cone that seals up when you push it on and start vacuuming. Some screw into the cooling reservoir for example with a stant-style cap some people say that design is better, others say it doesn't matter. Obviously there's a price difference when you compare say Snap-On to Harbor Freight, or Schwaben from ECS that I hear fails after 6mo. Meanwhile, Harbor Freight's is only 90 day warranty, though the cashier said he's never seen one get returned, implying good working quality.īut vacuum filler, I'm unsure what to buy. I wonder what the other truck brands are I plan to ask. Hopefully it's a simple enough design and rebuildable. However, Cornwell tells me (at higher new price I bet) that theirs has 1 year warranty only, not lifetime as you get with hand tools. Maybe it's sourced from the same manufacturer I don't know the name. I noticed Matco, Mac, Snap-On, Cornwell, and even Harbor Freight now all appear to use the same design pressure tester. The pressure tester is to pressurize the system maybe up to around 20psi with a hand pump, as you may knowĪnd vacuum filler, using shop air to quickly refill a cooling system with coolant after emptying it to perform repair work, such as replacing a water pump or radiator. I'm looking at buying a pressure tester and vacuum filler, for automotive use ![]()
