Motive Products Power Bleeder 1.9 L Pressure Brake Bleeder

This 1.9 L Motive Products Power Bleeder 0100 pressurized brake bleeder allows you to bleed and replace brake fluid without the help of a second person. Its built-in hand pump pressurizes the reservoir to supply the vehicle’s brake fluid reservoir and circulate the fluid when the bleed screws are opened.

Its built-in pressure gauge allows you to monitor the pressure during the procedure. The system operates without a compressor or electrical power. It can also be used to bleed a compatible hydraulic clutch system.

The reservoir has corrosion resistance and is compatible with DOT 3, DOT 4, and DOT 5.1 brake fluids. The kit includes a European 1100 adapter with a 45 mm screw-on plug (ATE type) and a chemical-resistant supply hose.

Compatibility with European vehicles

The included adapter fits reservoirs with a 45 mm European-style screw cap. This mounting is found on many vehicles from the following vehicle makes:

• Audi, BMW, and Mercedes-Benz.
• Porsche, Saab, and Volvo.
• Volkswagen (liquid cooling).
• Alfa Romeo, Fiat, Ferrari, and Peugeot.

Always check the diameter and mounting system of the original plug. Some versions use a different mounting, notably certain Ferrari models with a 42 mm plug.

For a vehicle with a different reservoir, a specific adapter may allow you to keep the same bleed valve.The MTV-1107 adapter, sold separately, is suitable for certain Subaru, Mitsubishi, and Nissan mountings.

Contents of the Power Bleeder 0100 Kit

• 1.9-liter reservoir with manual pump and gauge.
• Chemical-resistant supply hose with resistance.
• European 1100 adapter with a 45-mm screw-on plug.

Operation and Use

Attach the adapter to the brake fluid reservoir, then perform a leak test with the brake bleeder reservoir empty. After depressurizing, add new fluid as specified for the vehicle.

Operate the hand pump to reach the specified pressure. Motive specifies a typical range of 15 to 20 psi, or approximately 1 to 1.38 bar. Always follow the workshop manual first and do not exceed 20 psi unless otherwise specified in the manual.

Open the bleed screws in the order specified for the vehicle and collect the used fluid in a suitable container until the fluid runs clear and bubble-free. The bleeder will feed fluid into the reservoir as long as it contains enough fresh fluid.

Always depressurize the unit before removing the adapter. Then adjust the fluid level and check for leaks as well as brake performance. Do not store brake fluid in the brake bleeder after use.

Frequently Asked Questions About the Motive Power Bleeder 0100

Is this bleeder compatible with my car?
It is suitable for reservoirs equipped with a 45 mm European screw-on plug compatible with the 1100 adapter. Check the original plug: the vehicle make alone is not sufficient to guarantee compatibility.

What quantity of fluid should I plan for a complete fluid change?
About 1 liter is sufficient for many passenger cars. Some larger systems may require up to 2 liters. The exact quantity depends on the vehicle and the volume needed to ensure clean fluid at each bleed point.

Can I bleed the clutch with the Power Bleeder 0100?
Yes, if the hydraulic system and its reservoir are compatible. When the clutch shares the brake jar, the same adapter can be used to bleed the reservoir. Follow the vehicle’s procedure.

How do I collect the used fluid?
Connect a clear hose to the bleed screw and place its end in a suitable container. A Motive Products 1820 catch tank can also be used; it is sold separately.

Can this be used on a vehicle equipped with ABS?
Yes, provided the manufacturer’s procedure allows for bleeding under pressure. However, certain procedures involving the ABS module require an additional step using a diagnostic tool.
