So how do you get it to bleed systems with a surge tank such as a cavalier comes with?

For actual bleeding, you need a device called an "Airlift", which when connected to the shop's air source, it will actually suck the air out of the cooling system and as you replenish the coolant.Short of that, using right radiator cap adapter that comes with the kit enables you to do an almost a professional job. Just fill the radiator, run the engine until it warms up. You will first see the coolant level comes up (in the funnel) but as the thermostat opens, it will go down. Add coolant as it goes down until it takes no more. The put the car's radiator cap back on, fill the overflow tank to the marking...and you are done. Hope this helps.

I have a 2003 Cavalier with the pressurized surge tank. I just filled the system as full as I could, put the funnel in the surge tank, filled the funnel and started the engine. I just kept the funnel full as the system filled and vented. I was very pleased with how it worked. I would highly recommend it.

man thats a good (?) iv never done one with a surge tank you might want to look that up on google or youtube. your car might even have a bleeder somewhere on the coolant hoses or on one of the heater core lines. sorry i couldint help more but mabey this info will help. and good luck. :)

Not sure I understand your question, but I removed the bleed screw with a T10 torx wrench.

With the manual vest , you must pull the rip cord to inflate the unit. The automatic ones inflate when the are submersed in water.

If you don't want to fill up the tank and deal with cleaning it you can just fill your brake reservoir to the top and put the cap from the pump on to pressurize the system. You just have to be careful when doing this to make sure that there is adequate fluid in the reservoir and that you don't drain it down and introduce air into the system when bleeding. It's best to have partner looking at the reservoir when bleeding if you do this in case it does get low. I bled my clutch with this method and had no problems. Might be a stretch to a full brake job since you'd probably have to refill the reservoir after each caliper was bled.

Before you do anything expensive you should know that ALL of these tanks leak out the air over time. Without the air pressure there is nothing to push the water out. There is a place to put air into the tank using a compressor. Just make sure you set the gauge to the correct pressure so you do not overfill. Pony compressors a marvelous for all kinds of things.

I find that you can't. I believe this is a poor design. I got one of my old lancets that I manually load and kept using that. It also turned out to be cheaper. Hope that helped.

I have not been able to auto off other VicoVation devices because my cigarette lighter seems to have constant power as well. I'll look at the Marcus 3 when I can, but for the other models I use and would suggest a splitter with a switch. Something like Amazon ASIN B00EV5Q7QQ or B00E126124 so you don't wear the plug out.

The bleeder with the universal cap works on most vehicles but I found it easier to use if you order the adapter for your particular vehicle. You can find the part no. you need on the Motive website and order it on amazon by the part no. I saved money by ordering on Amazon.

The bleeders are on top of the cylinder. You just put a piece of 3/8 clear tube over the bleeder and turn with a wrench.

Air bubbles are best removed using vacuum which will make the bubbles more obvious, and (if needed) repeat bleedind. On difficult systems like bicycles and motorcycles utmost care must be taken to vent the bubbles off the top and then use vacuum to guarantee you have the bubbles eliminated. Take your time and repeat your process as you may be reintroducing air from a leaky valve or fitting. See bicycle brake bleeding techniques for tips on push-pull bleeding and repeat bleeding. Or have your work checked by a good shop.

not sure. I think at HAS A BUILT IN SURGE SUPPRESOR. HAD IT FOR 6 MOS. LOVE IT AND EASY TO USE.

I didn't use a pressure switch... My system is relay activated by a switch... When I need more pressure I hit the in cab switch... This way I can adjust myself between the fifth wheel camper... The boat.... And the equipment trailer... All need different pressures.. I found that riding level doesn't always ride right... If I ride level with the camper it is far too harsh of a ride...

I put it on my cavalier and its sounded pretty decent. Its loud and deep with the silencer off and sounds like its farting when its in.

Best thing for you would be to contact Pulstar through their webpage. I had to do that to find the right plug for my Victory XCT.

Yes, simply plug in unit and your equipment, then turn on the power switch for power needs. The pass through surge protection for the coaxial cable and phone wires if used are also easy connections and are clearly marked in and out to equipment. In my situation I am using the coaxial connection to protect my tv connected to an outdoor antenna. Last year our residence and antenna were hit by lightning and a similar APC surge bar saved our big screen tv eventhough the coaxial cable up to it got smoked. APC products are outstanding protection in my opinion.

pretty sure nobody else has gotten this right, there is a one way check valve between the tank and compressor head, and between the check valve and compressor head (or tapped into the compressor head) there is a T for the unloader line, the job of the unloader is so that when you start the compressor up it has 0 psi (compared to the "on" psi of say 90psi) at the head so it can gain momentum before meeting tank pressure, if the check valve has gone bad due to heat cooking it then the spring and ball has fallen inside the tank and the unloader is trying to relieve the head pressure but bleeds out the tank pressure, and usually after a few nail biting moments it stops, but not always here is the check valve I am talking about, it has the unloader port in it http://www.amazon.com/New-tank-Check-valve-compressor/dp/B003H7ITEW/ref=pd_sim_hi_52?ie=UTF8&refRID=1ENQAXSPBF40CB3GR23M

They just want you hooking it up to the backup one is all, the pipe that goes to a 45 to the main discharge. I did exactly what you're asking, put check valves right after it just like how you hookup a Watchdog battery system. If that's what you have right Now like I had. I took that 600 piece garbage out. This water backup one works awesome! Worth every penny, and it's 1/5 thr Price of the Best Watchdog Battery System.Another suggestion is I used those rubber inch & half elbows with hose clamps on each instead of using PVC elbows. Worked great for me and it's not nearly as Rigid.Google this also & click images, youtube video is also good Have a Great Christmas They just want you hooking it up to the backup one is all, the pipe that goes to a 45 to the main discharge.
