Tim your hydrogas pump that you built, can this depressurise the system as well? i need it to be able to pull out the air and fluid from system as well..
as apparently some pumps cant depressurise (take the air out) (last garage i went too, couldnt) so i had to get it pumped up wait a few days for to push the air out and drop, then get it pumped again..
but some of the older pumps can just pull all the air out first??

The liquid levers leaflet says on the old pump to pump up fully and then depressurise fully. Do this twice and apparently the air is expelled from the system. HTH.
Don't trip over the pump while it is connected and under pressure, as this results in the connection being disturbed and luminous green fluid going everywhere much to the neighbours amusement...

The liquid levers one doesn't have a facility to get rid of the air, but the leaflet implies that the act of pressurising / depressurising gets rid of the air. Home made shouldn't make any difference, I would have thought anyway.
