I came across this and learned a new way to bleed the system. It's better than cranking the wheel back and forth....

I learned something new today. Thanks for the tip, Steve.
I'm going to try it out on mine. I just had the PS pump off and system open. I used the old back and forth trick. It doesn't seem as quiet as it was before.
Jack, the reason I came across that is I bleed mine the way we ussually do it and the pump makes a noise like it's straining. It's sounds like air is still there but I cranked the wheels back and forth to bleed the system when I put this pump on and I thought I got all the air out. I have to pick up a new vacuum pump for a few thing and I was putting it off till it goes on sale. I am glad I came across the video

Been using the Mi-T-Vac for years on several things, on my second one. Great video.
Steve,
What did you use for a rubber plug at the end of the Mity-vac hose?
I'm also on my second Mity-Vac....great little vacuum pump.

If you are asking me I do not have a pump yet, I was about to buy a used Mity-vac that was supposed to be vurtually new and the guy was local but then the guy admitted the kit is missing a few items and it's not in the actual shape as in the photo he posted...do you guys have the metal or plastic version?
I have the plastic version currently and will eventually invest in the metal version. I know Harbor Freight sells a metal knock-off, I may give theirs a try.
When I had my shop air was a huge issue on mostly the FWD cars. Good info with a real problem
