Astro Pneumatic 78585 - Pressure and Vacuum Kit - Cooling Systems - First Look and Unboxing 

consider getting this : Astro Pneumatic Tool 7856 Universal Air Powered Cooling System Pressure Tester It will allow you to use air compressor instead of the included hand pump. The unit has a pressure regulator and a shut off valve. Say you're just testing for leaks before you change coolant...you can pressurize the system, shut off the air flow via shut off valve, disconnect air line and see if the system holds pressure. You can also make an adapter for it so you can use a small 18v tool compressor/inflator to pressurize the system if you want/need to. That 7856 tool is around 34 to 36 $ . This tool and the 78585 kit are well below $300...compare this to truck tool brands

Just picked this kit up!! It's a beast! fantastic build quality. Thanks for sharing

Cool kit!

Terrific review, and very well explained as always Thanks for sharing . Just showed it to a shop and they ordered one based upon this video

Thanks for the unboxing... this is on my list of upcoming tool buys

That's a nice kit! Hanging off of the hood is definitely a nice feature!

Totally agree with what you said about rad caps. I'm not a professional but I have seen at least two fail in my diy world bat confused others in their diagnosis. Good stuff Clyde!

Cool! Thanks for the vid. Best one I’ve seen for this kit. Earned a sub for both your channels. Look forward to seeing more of you! PS… If Will Robinson is watching and commenting on your videos, then they’re worth watching!!

Nice review. I actually have this exact kit. It works really well at least for my expertise in auto repair. Only complaint I had was I had to buy the gm adapter separate for around $21 on Amazon but other than that it's been good to me

For $40ish find the Astro Pneumatic pressurizer (on Amazon) that works off shop air and plugs up to your new kits quick connect adapters. It’ll let you pressurize even an empty cooling system. Well worth the investment.

Clyde, thanks for linking my video in your description. It's how I found your channel!

Wow that's a crazy amount of adapters - standardization of coolant fillers wouldn't be a bad idea. LOL

wow.. just found this channel. been a roadhouse sub for couple years. Again (as i said on other channel)...nice vid bro. subbed.

The best part of this kit is using the vacuum part to add antifreeze directly to a 2 liter Mountain Dew bottle, it has the correct adapter and everything, unfortunately I had to drink some of the Mountain Dew to create space for the good stuff. If you don’t understand my comment, shame on you. You should of read the vidya doo-bly-doo

Great review! Thank you

Hey sir fine post. I like the Astro Pneumatic tools I have a flip socket lug nut set works great good price funny thing it says it's 3pc set but really it's 4 three sockets with the extension, I remember the days when they included the case as a piece

great set...

Great video!!!!!

good unboxing i love buying tools

I.... Never struggle with rad caps haha their fairly inexpensive, if it looks old, cracked seal or anything of the sort I just get a new one, that is a very complete set! And it's huge lol, I just bought the Maddox vacuum set, pressure pump set and the universal adapter all separately for about 200 bucks if I would of seen your video before I might of gotten that kit

The coolant system, what is the size of the hose that sucks the coolant and the blue hose?

FYI; I purchased the Blue kit on WISH FOR $130 and I found the RED KIT is sold on ALI Express that cost more!

Clyde how do you like this kit? Is it worth picking this up or go another route... Thanks bud

great vigia! I'm definitely going to get that set! oh, and coolant tastes alright😁🍻🥓🇺🇸

Do you know if this will work on a Ford Escape?

Emulating is a high form of respect...long live Scotty kilmer and Ave

CLYDES SOAPBOX.. /// /// what testing tool do you use to test and check the temperature gauge in your cars dashboard is working correctly or is not working correctly? what do I use to test the temperature gauge? /// how do you test what the PSI level of the radiator is at while the car is running?

Nice tool. Hope it works out for you

Venturi?? I always thought that was an item on the Olive Garden's appetizers menu???

Nice review. I live in EU so i don't know how easy will be for me to buy this brand or if i find anyone who has international shipping. Mercedes cars need this coolant refill/purge system.

Have used this kit and does it work well?

How well does yours test radiator caps? I have this tool and it seems every cap I test is bad. Makes me think its the cap adapters.

Any updates on this?

"Man thats huge!!!".......Thats what she said. *drops mic

I thought coolant was going to taste like maple syrup, but I was sadly disappointed....

I like my redline

lots of big words there Clyde. need to break them down for me 😂 im tool jockey.

Hi The video is awesome.. Good job. I ordered that kit too, but I didn't received the quick run down /layout ? Anyone who know where I can find that instruction ?

Cool to see the working class voting against they’re interest to protect right wing politicians and ideology
