I bought one of these Motive pressure bleeders and I made sure it had a
cap that fit prior to ordering (and it does).  I paid about $45 for mine
and I really do like it.


One could be made using a garden sprayer, a gauge, some tubing, and an
old brake reservoir cap.  The time and parts needed to make one would
soon add up to $45 dollars worth, though.
