capt den Posted October 31, 2022 Report Share Posted October 31, 2022 the tutorial on this website about doing brakes mentions a KD 2910 one man brake bleeder. could not find this one online.the ones i saw do not seem to have a cap that will fit over our master cylinders. the system seems to eliminate sucking air back in while bleeding. also prevents the master from getting empty while bleeding, which i think happened when i just recently bled mine. i bled them alot, but they still have air in the line. i think maybe i need to bleed the rears also, but i did not work on them. does anyone know which one man bleeder will work with our masters? capt den Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TodFitch Posted October 31, 2022 Report Share Posted October 31, 2022 I haven’t looked closely at the P15 era master cylinder but my impression is the cap is a threaded plug. If so, can you get a spare plug and create the needed adapter from it? That is what I did for my 1930s master cylinder which has a pipe threaded breather attached to the cover plate.

Sniper Posted October 31, 2022 Report Share Posted October 31, 2022 The plug on my P23 is something like 1 1/8-18. I could not find a spare plug to use. I ended up going this route, I wish I had done this decades ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveR Posted November 1, 2022 Report Share Posted November 1, 2022 I always use my W.I.F.E. (Willing Indigenous Free Engineer). It's great for those bonding moments and has added benefits as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capt den Posted November 2, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2022 the cap on my 54 chrysler master looks bigger than the one sniper shows. WIFE is always available. just thought i would like to try the one person way. perhaps i can get a PVC pipe to fit to make a cap for a bleeder. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sniper Posted November 2, 2022 Report Share Posted November 2, 2022 Not sure why that picture pops up in the thread I linked, It's not one I put in there My cap is in excess of 1" in diameter and is actually a plug, not so much a cap.

capt den Posted November 3, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2022 yes, plug is a better term. about 1 inch or so. will try to match up something at the store. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
