does anyone make a pressure bleeder adapter for the master cylinder
reservoir on my '93 F-150? If so, where can I buy it?

Common Jeff it was a clear question. He wants to use a pressurized brake
bleeder
to bleed his brakes, but doesnt have the correct adaptor to fit his master
cylinder.
If it's an Amco brake bleeder check NAPA, or catch a Matco or Snap-On tool
vender.

It's actually a Motive Products pressure bleeder, but I could adapt to
probably anything as it simply uses a hose barb on the "cap."
Actually if I had a good junkyard nearby I would just buy a junk MC
for the cap and JB-weld it up.

I'll check NAPA and if that doesn't pan out I might send my dad to a
junkyard to check it out. I wanted to get some newer style wiper
blades anyway as the PIAA silicone blades don't come in a pin mount
style. (I know that PIAA is known for ricer garbage, but their
silicone wiper blades really do hold up longer than any others I've
tried, although they're pricey.)

BTW the reason for my asking is I am in the habit of changing the
brake fluid on all vehicles every 2 years. I am a big believer in
regular changes no matter what the manual says as I tend to keep my
vehicles well past their "best before" date :)

Cool. either it's new since I bought my pressure bleeder (it's a Motive
unit, and it's awesome for the price. Appears somewhat cheap and
plasticky but it has held up great for many years and many jobs) or the
place I bought mine from just didn't carry it, because I don't remember
seeing it before. Also I see one that I KNOW is new, which is the
"classic car adapter" which appears to fit my Studebakers so I will have
to get one of those... I've been borrowing a friend's modified spare
cap whenever I have to do that car.

mo' money...
