they are exactly the same, but you get a pot to catch fluid in with the cheaper one

Very easy to use, totally one man operation no need to pump the brake pedal just open & close the nipple & watch the fluid run through.
Well worth the extra money.

hmm looks good so you get a spare tyre and just put the adaptor on the valve until your happy its running smooth then close the valve job done

think i might have to invest in one of these then.....

on the matter i would like to bleed all four corners in my Mk3 astra (rear disc) can i do it in any order as ive read has to be done in an order with abs etc

the eezi bleed kits are well worth the money, it transformed the pedal feel when i done mine, dave as for bleeding the brakes furthest from master cylinder to closest, so n/s rear, o/s rear, n/s front then o/s front.
