I picked up a spare master cylinder cap at the junkyard, the sprayer and pipe fittings came from ACE. Take out the breather in the cap (black plastic piece and drill a hole through the center for hose barb.

On the inside of the cap I threaded in a reducer. I originally sealed it with silicone, but this failed after a few uses. I've since coated it with epoxy and have had no issues since. The rubber gasket on the inside of the cap is siliconed to the inside of the cap as both a retainer and to seal the breather passage.

I can take some pics later if you're interested. I've also just made a similar cap for my wife's Subaru Outback. Works the same way. Just pump up the sprayer and open the bleeder of your choice. I've seen some others that will put the brake fluid into the sprayer, but I keep the sprayer dry and just top off the reservoir as needed.

 

Updates:

ME7.1.1 ECU on its way from PA so that I can code it for the manual transmission. Involves a little bit of wiring, but considering what I've done to get to this point, I'm okay with it as long as it works. I'll document the wiring changes for anyone interested.

I got stuck in traffic yesterday for about 45 minutes. I must admit that I was slightly concerned about overheating. I ran the A/C at 70 F the whole time and the needle stayed right in the middle. The fans were sure working.

 

Nice. I'm too lazy to scroll back, but I believe you tacked on a pusher fan to get a little more room. I would have been worried too.

 

Yes. I'm glad that I added the pusher. I think I will add some ducting around the radiator and A/C condenser to improve flow. I've also thought about upgrading the pusher to a higher flow model.

 

I got my Chinese center caps today. I've been using the VW caps that came with the wheels for over a year now. Not bad for $13 shipped from China.

 

^Much better. Now where are the damn videos? I want to hear it purr.

 

Trying to decide if I should paint my front calipers next time I have the brakes apart. Looks sharp there, but am I going to have to pull the wheel every two weeks to wash off the caliper to keep the effect looking good?

 

I've used the Duplicolor caliper spray paint before and it didn't stay looking good for long.

I was really impressed with the brush on G2 stuff. It's more expensive, but seems much harder and better gloss. I imagine any dust that gets on there can be simply rinsed off with a hose, though I haven't washed it since the paint as you can see by the dirty wheels.

I know that I've been neglecting my video duties, but I've got a bad bearing in the serpentine that makes it sound like a supercharger now. Going to have to take the bumper and lock carrier off again.

 

That sucks. We're all waiting! Chop chop!

I used the red G2 brush on caliper paint a year ago and it still looks great. Dust washes off super easy. I wish I put a coat of clear over it though.

 

How do you guys prep for that G2? Just wire brush the bejusus out of it?
