5.0 out of 5 stars The vacuum pump is made of high-quality materials
If you're looking for an efficient and easy-to-use brake bleeder kit, the HTOMT 2 in 1 Brake Bleeder Kit Hand held Vacuum Pump is an excellent option to consider. This product is designed to help you bleed brakes, test vacuum systems and perform a variety of other tasks related to automotive repair and maintenance.One of the main features of this kit is its versatility. It comes with two different modes that allow you to use it as a brake bleeder or a vacuum pump, depending on your needs. This means that you can use it to remove air bubbles from your brake lines, test the vacuum systems in your car or perform a variety of other tasks.Another advantage of the HTOMT 2 in 1 Brake Bleeder Kit is its ease of use. The kit includes a vacuum gauge that allows you to monitor the pressure during the bleeding process, ensuring that you get accurate results every time. The vacuum pump also comes with a variety of adapters and hoses that make it easy to connect to different parts of your car.The build quality of this product is also impressive. The vacuum pump is made of high-quality materials that are designed to last, and it comes with a durable carrying case that makes it easy to transport and store. The kit also includes clear and easy-to-follow instructions, which is especially helpful if you're new to brake bleeding or vacuum testing.One thing to keep in mind is that the HTOMT 2 in 1 Brake Bleeder Kit is not designed for professional use.

4.0 out of 5 stars Seems to work well, but there's apparently no ideal solution to the air-leakage problem
11/30/22In a previous revision of this review, I unfairly cast doubt on the effectiveness of this kit, because the brakes became spongy when they got hot (by my standards) as a result of exiting a freeway onto a fairly long downhill stretch, at the end of which I had to take a right onto a side street. So, the brakes had to absorb much more energy in a shorter amount of time than they had since I had changed the fluid. Later, after they had an opportunity to cool down, the problem disappeared. For a while, I suspected that there was excessive water in the fluid, and that the water had boiled, but after testing the fluid with a brake fluid tester (appx. $15 from Bolo), I realized that the fluid was fine, and concluded that the master cylinder was the problem. Brake fluid becomes much less viscous as it heats up, and more likely to leak past seals. The old brake fluid had probably ruined the old seals, and then when I was experimenting with bleeding methods and pushed the pedal to the floor (which experts discourage, as I learned later), the seals were probably ruined further by being dragged across a rough, unused section of the master cylinder.Fortunately, by the time the fluid heated up, and the brakes became spongy, I was pulling into a parking space with an empty space in front of me, and didn't hit anything despite overshooting the front of the space. But the consequences could have been disastrous.So, the vacuum-pump bleeder wasn't the problem. However, I decided that I'd rather not put up with the air-leakage problem of the vacuum-pump method, and to instead use the pressure method, which is recommended in a Fiat-Chrysler safety recall notice from August 2018 entitled Dealer Service Instructions for: Safety Recall U86/NHTSA 18V-523 Low Brake Pedal which includes the following statement:"NOTE: The bleeding procedure described in this recall may be used to remove air from the brake system. PRESSURE BLEEDING IS RECOMMENDED if pressure bleeding equipment is available. If pressure bleeding equipment is available, follow the manufacturer’s directions for proper use."However, if you don't mind air pockets in the bleeder-hose, or using some technique to reduce the air-leakage through the bleeder-screw's threads (simply pressing on the bleeder-screw might help, without causing other problems, but all of the other methods I've seen supposedly risk contaminating the fluid, and some of them have other problems), you would probably find the vacuum-pump method satisfactory. You would just pump until the fluid color changes from dark to clear, or if the "old" fluid is as clear as the new fluid, you'd just pump out enough fluid to ensure that the old fluid has been removed (a cup might be overkill, but I'd rather waste a little fluid than risk leaving the older fluid in the system).Here's an earlier revision (with minor clarifications), which is still valid and contains some useful information:============================The pump works well, although all of the bleeder-screw fittings were too large for my car's bleeder screws, so I connected the hose directly to the front bleeder screws. For the rear bleeder screws, I used a small hose from a $5 bleeder kit (which I ordered before this one and thought was a total waste), and used one of the conical adapters supplied with the pump to connect the small hose to the larger hose.All of my car's bleeder screws were clogged, and the pump was unable to pull any fluid through them until I either replaced them or unclogged them with a piece of wire. If a bleeder screw is clogged and fluid runs out when you remove it, you'll have to get a replacement bleeder screw, or something to plug the bleeder port while you unclog the screw. (I've seen plastic bleeder-port plugs on the internet.) Bleeder screws have fine threads, and equivalent bolts are uncommon. The front and rear screws aren't necessarily the same.Because the pump creates a vacuum in the brake system, some air will get pulled in through the bleeder-screw threads and into the bleeder-port (see the relevant diagram [1], which I posted along with this review), where it is pulled out along with fluid coming from the brake cylinder, creating large air pockets in the fluid in the bleeder hose and giving a false impression that there's a lot of air in the brake system.I didn't bother to seal the bleeder screws, and just ignored the air pockets in the bleeder hose and pumped until the new fluid started coming out. (At the time, I didn't know where the pockets of air in the bleeder hose were coming from, but I figured that they couldn't have been coming from the brake system.) This seems to have worked well. The brakes were a little spongy at first, but after a 30 mile drive they were very solid. I don't know what changed, but I doubt that the hydraulic system bled itself along the way.Before bleeding, use the vacuum pump to remove the old fluid from the reservoir, wipe it out with a paper towel and then fill it with new fluid. Black sludge on the paper towel is supposedly a sign that the old fluid was too degraded and that it had taken a toll on rubber parts such as hoses and seals. Wear disposable nitrile gloves when working with brake fluid, or it will dry out the skin on your hands for several days, and moisturizer won't entirely alleviate the dryness.Some people prefer the pressure method, although it apparently has problems too. The vacuum-pump method is cheap and worked well enough for me.Notes[1] Diagram was created from diagrams from the "REF Wheels, Brakes & Tires - Sportsterpedia" page, which has quite a bit of useful information on brake-system bleeding.
5.0 out of 5 stars Changing Brakes = Easy!
I recently tried out the HTOMT 2 in 1 Brake Bleeder Kit, and it's been a game changer for my automotive maintenance tasks. What impressed me most was its ease of use and effectiveness in bleeding brakes and clutches single-handedly.The kit comes with a variety of adapters and a hand-held vacuum pump enclosed in a sturdy case, which keeps everything organized and protected. This made it convenient to store and carry around when needed.One thing I particularly liked was how straightforward it was to set up and operate. Even as a DIYer without extensive automotive experience, I found the instructions clear and the process intuitive. It saved me a trip to the mechanic and allowed me to tackle the job on my own schedule.As for dislikes, I didn't encounter any significant issues during my use. The materials felt durable, and the pump provided consistent suction, which is crucial for bleeding brakes effectively.In conclusion, this brake bleeder kit exceeded my expectations with its user-friendly design and reliable performance. It's a great addition to any DIYer's toolkit, offering the convenience of professional-grade brake and clutch bleeding at home.
Works just fine
Not sure what others complain about.Anyhow works well for me.Only comment i have, if you want to flush the entire braking system, this would take too long. Better do it from pressure at master cylinder.For caliper work or just basic bleeding, its just fine.
Muy malo.
No sirve, nunca pudo sacar el aceite 👎 definitivamente muy mal 👎
Thurs
