I made one a couple of years ago and it works fine, except that I only put 10-15 psi of
pressure, above
that the brake fluid reservoir looks like it's going to explode.
Incidentally, I never put any brake fluid into to bleeder itself, just top up the
reservoir, install the
bleeder cap and put some pressure. Works fine.
