<div dir="auto">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.</div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Wed., Oct. 11, 2023, 8:42 a.m. m.g.sharp--- via Healeys, <<a href="mailto:healeys@autox.team.net">healeys@autox.team.net</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div lang="EN-CA" link="#0563C1" vlink="#954F72" style="word-wrap:break-word"><div class="m_1535124540252052455WordSection1"><p class="MsoNormal"><span>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’t see it on their web page. Weird.

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.
