The OEMTOOLS 27311 kit teams with a hand vacuum pump to apply controlled suction at the reservoir, allowing technicians and DIYers to purge air without disassembling hard-to-reach components. Built for repeated shop use, the kit includes multiple adapters and a catch bottle to protect the vacuum pump from fluid contamination.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this kit remove air from power steering and brake systems?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe kit creates a vacuum at the reservoir or bleeder fitting so trapped air migrates out of lines into the bottle. Using suction instead of pumping fluid back through the system reduces mess and helps clear air pockets that cause noise or irregular operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eConnect EPDM tapered adapters to form an airtight seal on most power steering reservoirs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAttach one of three brake bleeder adapters to match disc or drum fittings.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCollect expelled fluid in the included reservoir bottle to prevent pump contamination.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat vehicle systems and fittings does the 27311 kit support?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis kit covers a broad range of domestic and import vehicles by offering interchangeable adapters for common reservoir necks and bleeder nipples.

That containment reduces maintenance on the pump and keeps work areas cleaner than open-flow bleeding methods.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReservoir bottle collects waste fluid and allows visual monitoring of expelled air and liquid.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAdapters seal firmly to minimize splatter and fluid leakage during suctioning.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDurable materials designed for repeated use in professional and home garages.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow simple is it to use this kit for DIYers and pros?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsing the 27311 is straightforward: select the correct adapter, attach the bottle, connect the vacuum pump, and apply controlled vacuum while turning the steering or cycling brakes per manufacturer guidance.

It’s especially useful when bleeding hard-to-reach reservoirs, when you want to protect hand vacuum equipment from fluid backflow, or when you need an adaptable set of seals and adapters to support multiple vehicle makes. This kit pairs well with any compatible hand vacuum pump and is sized for repeated use in both home and professional environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"product-faq-snippet\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: Will this kit fit my vehicle's power steering reservoir?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: The kit includes two tapered EPDM adapters designed to seal most reservoir necks; check fit visually and test seal before use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: Can I use the 27311 with my existing hand vacuum pump?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: Yes, the kit is made to pair with standard hand vacuum pumps to apply vacuum at reservoirs or bleeder fittings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"OEMTOOLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48086277390494,"sku":"B0777BN5TC","price":49.98,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0781\/2041\/9486\/files\/oemtools-27311-front-packaging.jpg?v=1785893263","url":"https:\/\/northtrailauto.ca\/products\/oemtools-power-steering-brake-bleeder-kit-27311-vacuum-adapter-kit-with-reservoir-bottle-and-multiple-adapters","provider":"North Trail Auto","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
