Those clips being something you used on the Amundsen Expedition?
I have an Eezibleed. It came with a variety of caps, none of which =
fitted. I rang them up and they sent me one that did fit at once.
I seem to recall that I bulked out one of the =E2=80=9Calmost =
fit=E2=80=9D versions with Clingfilm to make a satisfactory seal.
I do recall that I got far better results with the Eezibleed at really =
low pressure than with the suggested psi.

As Mirek mentioned I struggled with the lod sealing problem for my =
Snap-on pressure bleeder many years ago and finally solved the problem =
by making this device. The spring clips are made from those from a very =
ancient ski boot. It took a bit of work and ingenuity but has served me =
well for decades.

John, I have this same bleeder but the product number for the adaptor is =
not listed on my receipt. However, they can tell you which one you =
need. I seem to recall that oddly they did not have an early Healey =
listed, but the cap on the reservoir is the same as my M.G. TC, and the =
dealer did have a listing for the TC, although I don=E2=80=99t see it on =
their web page. Weird. I=E2=80=99d contact their support people and =
ask.
=20
That said, I have never been able to get the cap on the bleeder to seal =
on the reservoir. I mentioned it to Mike Salter who had a similar =
problem. It just does not seem to screw down tight enough, although I =
can see no logical reason for it not sealing. It is on my =E2=80=9Cto =
do=E2=80=9D list (but near the bottom), to get a used reservoir and =
experiment to get a better fit.=20
=20
Lastly, I could not see how one would prevent the brake fluid in the =
tube from draining out when the cap was removed. I fitted a check valve =
in the line right above the adaptor. =20
=20
I=E2=80=99d be interested to see if other listers have had issues the =
adaptor sealing on the reservoir and how they solved it.
=20
For now, I am back to the old school method and it works fine, I just =
need to find another warm body to pump the pedal.

Does anyone have one of these? I bought one and the Girling cap does not =
fit my Moss Motors Classic Gold brake/clutch fluid reservoir. I have a =
1962 BT7.
=20
=20
The adaptor above is the red cap and hose, the Girling one.
I think I need the 1100 adaptor pictured below.

If you have one, which adaptor did you have and do you have a product =
number you could send me?

Thanks,
John
