Motive power bleeder sources
Went to the Motive site, there are multiple bleeders there. Any recommendations or links to one that for certain will work? Hope to be running SRF tomorrow!

Brad,
I have the Black Label version. This includes a much longer hose from canister to reservoir adaptor so the bleeder can rest on the ground, rather than somewhere in the trunk. Additionally, the reservoir adaptor is machined aluminum rather than plastic. The only issue was a small pressure leak at the brass connector and reservoir adaptor. Regular Teflon tape solved that issue.

Just make sure you get the one with the CORRECT (size/diameter) adapter.
Oh yeah, I've pix of my brake FLUSH - using the Motive PB:

Definitely get the black label.
Do NOT, however, get their bleeder bottles. The hard plastic nipples between the hose and cap are very brittle and snap easily with any side load. They sent me more for free, but I was breaking one per wheel on average moving the hose from one side to the other with the bottle hanging. And when they break, fluid comes out of the now loose end of the hose which is flapping around. Not great for paint.

Kary is a world claas IT geek...he can talk you though it. Leave him a message that you need to talk to him and ask him to give you some date and times when you can chat (No worries now...all tracks in and around MI are probably going dormant now...oh those lovely 4 seasons!)....if you are looking at a GNX software display, suggest you use GoToMeeting.com With both of you on-line, he can take control of your desktop and tap dance around the software.

I bought the Red label Bleeder it worked well. Fellow R'lister, Blaine, bought the Black Label with the swivel in the line and longer hose - much more convenient. I wish I bought the Black label. I just order the adapter for our new(to us)Miata. Mia is about to get her first taste of Super Blue!
