Ski,
You mentioned going to get a coolant pressure tester. I use my Motive as a pressure source and a modified coolant tank cap. To make the cap use a Stant cap and remove everything below the top (when installed) seal. Once this is in place, remove the overflow line from the coolant tank and connect the motive bleeder hose to the coolant tank.

man those things break all the time! Guy at an autox had one break while he was on the track. I gave him a ride up to autozone, bought a bolt that was alittle too long and a stack of copper washers and it worked to get him home.

[QUOTE=gregeast]I actually bought a Speed Bleeder for brakes that fit but it didn't work, the way it works it needs the bottom of it needs to seat against something (normally the brake caliper) In this case of course it's just floating in coolant.QUOTE]
Yeah, that was the first thing I looked at. I will look into it and let you know.

I've talked to a guy who fidgeted around with a speed bleeder for quite a while before giving up and going back to the factory bolt.
In any case, Paragon has the bleeder boltand washers, they just aren't listed on the website. I bought one from them about a month ago.
