An all rounder

26 April 2013  

The Mityvac 8500 can be used to bleed the clutch and brakes on many vehicles but the all-rounder can also be used to perform a diagnostic vacuum test, usually without disconnecting the equipment. It can help diagnose faults involving burned, leaking, sticking or broken engine valves and springs and identify problems with piston rings, crankcase ventilation valves, thermal vacuum switches and many more. The gauge swivels 360 degrees so you can see the pressure at any angle. It can switch between vacuum pump and pressure pump operation with a turn of the switch – a number of accessories are available for the tool.
