Brake Fluid Reservoir Cap

[GoldfingerLS]

I bought a 'Gunson EEZIBLEED' power bleed kit from Halfords to change the brake fluid. However none of the different caps supplied which are supposed to fit on to brake fluid reservior fit my '99 LS400. Is there another cap available from somewhere which I can just drill a hole and fit ?

The universal ones they do are like £15 just for a cap. I'm guessing another cap from Lexus will be about the same price if i buy one to drill a hole in it.

Any ideas ?

Thanks.

scrap yard,if not a lexus one then try other makes of cars.You are only going to drill a hole in it any way!! might be worth a go

Sounds like a Gunson's COMPLICATEDBLEED

The Ezeebleed is a bleeder!

I just got one too, i only went there for 2 more axle stands and got sold this kit.....it is meant to be a more reliable way becuase I dont need to find a helper & because it doesnt allow air to be sucked back in (when your 'pumper' says the pedal was down properly and it wasnt!)

It says you use your spare tyre pressure and its all hunky dory..............

When you get home it says in the book that it doesnt fit most toyotas and your spare tyre should be no more than 20psi??? and since i dont have an inflater at home and i need to find a spare cap - then it does make the job rather more awkward than the name and the box suggests....

I will have air in my system after replacing a 4ft brake pipe so the box read like it was the tool for the job.........i'll see what i can do and will let you all know what the outcome was
