Care to elaborate how you managed to make it work on the clutch resivior? I tried but failed. Once you get it in an ok spot the chain is not far enough back to catch.
Any pics by chance?

Those of you who have the speed bleeder, which model/part # did you get? I don't see the S2000 listed on their website.
Thanks!

I bought my power bleeder directly from the source, off the Motive Products website. It did show up broken, but they immediately sent me new parts. Works great.
I have a mightyvac and a motive brake bleeder. The Motive works better because the mightyvac suck in air around the threads. Its hard to tell when you have all of the air out of the system.
I started running the Motive without putting fluid in it. I tried to do bleed with fluid in it and it started leaking. Made a HUGE mess. It was easy enough to take the cap off and add fluid when needed while I was doing the bleed.

Best way to prevent leaking when finished using a pressure bleeder:
While the bleeder still has pressure, slowly unscrew the cap to fill the pressure bleeder. As you do this, it will suck all the brake fluid from the line going to the reservoir and pull it back into the bleeder container.
I've never had a spill using this method.

I will be running it dry from now on unless they come up with a cap that screws on or I make a custom one. I found a couple threads about custom caps when I first ordered mine. I needed to get fluid back in the car fast though and didn

The cap leaks because of overtightening of it. Just tighten the hooks until the cap is snug.

Sorry to bump an old thread but can anyone provide me with the model number or the adapter type used for the S2000.
This product worked wonderfully on my Evo but I recall that I had to order the Ford three prong adapter for it to mate up to the reservoir.
