Worked great on my '95CSE and '95Aero with TCS. Both have clutches which were also bled with the Motive. This is a bleeder which holds about a gal of fluid, so you won't run out ie it refills resevoir as you bleed. I put in 1 and a half qts the first time. It took about a quart for each car. Follow Quasi's and the manufacturer's instructions on use.
For $45 or so, the Motive was a great way to go about bleeding. All I had to do was walk around the car and open the nipples. Think I also had to pump the pressure back up to 15psi once. I combined with a tire rotation, and had the car on jackstands with all 4 wheels off. I figure the bleeder paid back twice it's cost with the first use on both cars.
The Motive is avail at motive.com (I think) or eEuroparts, a site sponsor. The Motive site also has lots of info about the tool.
