sorry I didn't share it sooner . maybe it will be helpful for others.That one is half the cost of the Airlift and appears to be very similar. I wish I had seen that one first.

what kind of a compressor is necressary for this tool?I used my Airlift yesterday and it worked perfectly. It was super simple to use.
- Drain coolant from radiator
- Insert rubber cone fitting into coolant tank and insert gauge assembly into rubber cone fitting and tighten collar to create a tight seal
- Hook up shop air (90 psi minimum) to vacuum/extraction hose to gauge assembly, open valve and draw a vacuum (25 psi)
- Disconnect vacuum/extraction hose and connect fill hose to gauge assembly, insert other end of hose into coolant bottle and open valves on the gauge assembly and fill hose
- When gauge reads zero, filling is complete.
Note: I did turn my heater control and fan motor to High during this process.
Holding vacuum for 15 min. to ensure that there are no leaks in the system before proceeding.
Filling coolant system.
Vacuum gauge reading zero (which indicates coolant system is full.
Coolant tank full. Note: The level is a little high, but it should lower itself once I run the engine, but Iām not quite ready to start the engine yet. Iām sure Iāll likely end up having to add a little more coolant to the tank.
