Default Motive Bleeder Modification Question

I have a Euro Motive bleeder and I would like to be able to use it on all of my cars. Motive sells adapter caps for Japanese, American, etc. I would like to be able to setup my bleeder to switch caps quickly. What I am thinking is adapting all the hose ends to quick disconnect fittings like the ones commonly used on air hose. Does anyone see a reason why this wouldn't work?

Thanks!!!

I would try the quick disconnect fittings used on cool suits (and medical devices), the tubing size should be pretty close..

Just make sure they hold pressure airtight.

I am not sure what your set up looks like, but the motive Pro version I have, came with caps for my P car, my ford truck, Honda, GM It had about 10 different caps all with quick disconnects like on an air hose. I think I paid like $100.00 for it.

You can purchase the Motive Products adapter kits and request QD ends on them. You should also get the male end for the bleeder but remind the shipper that you need it just in case.

Go to motiveproducts.com and shop for the accessories.

You will need one male quick disconnect, and as many female quick disconnects as adapters you have.

I use the Euro adapter for the Bimmers and Piggy-Car and the Universal adapter for the Pokemon-car.

Those look like regular compression fittings to me. I'll go pick some up and try it out. Thanks for the help guys!
