A Serious question? Why are you just forcing the old contaminated brake fluid back up into the master cylinder? I was always taught to evacuate the old fluid through the bleader especially if the system has ABS as the contamination could damage the ABS UNIT.

Why are you assuming this sys contaminated? This was a maybe 42K mile typical brake job. Yes, if the sys was old and had a gazillion miles and was actually contaminated, what you saying make sense.

Or you do it the real old-school way use a big prybar midgrade or a big screwdriver get behind the pad compress both pistons and you don’t have to take the caliper off and then put the tool in there. The piston Cerati collapsed. That’s a old school technician way. Or you use the sea clamp parach of Chanlocks but these new technicians out said we’re doing it wrong been doing it longer. They even thought about doing this field get 20 years on this field and see how they feel a lot of times you have to use the old-school ways on this new garbage, but the old school technicians have to come in and fix the new school parts changers because they can’t fix the job. They just want to throw parts at well. The scanner said it was that no the scanner put you in a direction then you need to troubleshoot it from there but they don’t know how to troubleshoot. They got the eight ball in your toolbox And there is some technicians out there that’s been under the wing of a old school technician and taught right about the schools now they just teach them to throw parts at them in and there’s a difference between a technician and a mechanic does a lot of people know the difference there is a big difference

@@critical_oppzttv5389 But this a new mechanic that gets excited about new tools that he buy. Im sure you have a tool box full of tools you no longer use because you found a better way..And I'm sure he will get there. Let him have his moment.

@@OnlineMechanicTips I'm not even giving any hate lmao what anybody would be excited about new tools. But take look at the comments everyone mentioned something with a c clamp and something sturdy. There's a right tool for every job that tool is the one. Get off your high horse 🤣 I found something funny my bad ig 🤣

Only good if pistons are so far out otherwise waste of money

Your going way too fast with that pointless tool. Go slower or you will cause a caliper piston leak. They aren't designed to move that fast. You need to give the rubber o ring time to catch up.
