Two Essential Cooling System Service Functions. One Organized Kit.

Take a more organized approach to automotive cooling system maintenance.

This 22-piece radiator pressure tester and vacuum coolant refill kit combines a hand-operated pressure testing pump, a vacuum-assisted refill tool, multiple radiator cap adapters, and supporting accessories in one portable carrying case.

Use the pressure testing equipment to check compatible cooling systems for potential pressure loss. When coolant refilling is required, the vacuum refill assembly provides an additional service option when connected to a suitable external air compressor.

Built for practical maintenance work, with the tools organized and ready when needed.

Check Compatibility Before You Begin

This kit includes nine color-coded radiator cap adapters, four aluminum adapters, and a tapered universal-style adapter to support different cooling system connection types.

Vehicle fitment depends on the radiator or coolant reservoir opening, cap design, and applicable service procedure. The kit is intended for compatible vehicles, but fitment is not guaranteed for every make, model, or year.

Before ordering, confirm that the adapter configuration matches your vehicle's cooling system connection.

Important Equipment Requirement

The hand-operated pressure pump is used for pressure testing. The vacuum coolant refill assembly requires a separately supplied, suitable external air compressor.

Works With:

  • Cooling systems that accept one of the product adapter interfaces
  • Appropriate radiator or reservoir connections
  • Compatible external air compressors for vacuum operation

Not Suitable For:

  • Cooling systems requiring an incompatible or unavailable adapter
  • Connections that cannot be safely sealed using the supplied fittings
  • Vacuum refill operation without the required external air equipment

Always follow the vehicle cooling system service instructions.

Pressure Testing Made More Accessible

Use the hand-operated pressure testing pump to apply controlled pressure to a compatible cooling system according to the vehicle manufacturer's specified procedure.

The integrated gauge allows you to observe system pressure during testing, helping identify potential pressure loss that may indicate a leak.

With a flexible connecting hose and interchangeable adapters, the kit provides a practical setup for routine cooling system inspection and troubleshooting.

Key Functional Details

  • Hand-operated pressure pump
  • Integrated pressure gauge
  • Advertised 0–35 psi measuring range
  • Flexible connection hose
  • Multiple adapter interfaces

The gauge's measuring range is not a recommended testing pressure. Always use the pressure specified for the particular vehicle and never exceed its approved limit.

Vacuum-Assisted Coolant Refilling

For cooling system refill procedures that support vacuum filling, the included vacuum refill assembly provides an alternative to conventional pouring methods.

Connect the refill tool to a suitable external air compressor, establish the required vacuum according to the applicable service procedure, and use the transparent refill hose to draw coolant from a separate container into the compatible cooling system.

The assembly includes a vacuum gauge, metal quick connections, control valves, and a filtered hose fitting.

Vacuum refilling can assist with coolant filling and may help reduce trapped air when used correctly. Vehicle-specific bleeding procedures may still be required.

Multiple Adapters for Different Connection Types

Different vehicles use different radiator and coolant reservoir connection designs.

To accommodate a range of compatible openings, the kit includes nine color-coded radiator cap adapters, four aluminum adapters, and one tapered adapter.

The color-coded caps support convenient visual identification, while the different connection styles provide additional flexibility when selecting the correct interface.

Always check the required shape, seal, and connection dimensions before fitting an adapter. Multiple adapters expand the available options but do not establish universal compatibility.

Organized for Maintenance and Storage

Keep your cooling system service tools organized between uses.

The molded carrying case provides dedicated storage positions for the pressure pump, vacuum refill assembly, adapters, gauges, hose, and smaller accessories.

Its portable design helps keep the kit together whether stored in a home garage or automotive workshop.

Storage Case Dimensions

15.7 × 12.8 × 3.7 inches

Approximately 400 × 325 × 95 mm

Important Usage & Service Considerations

Before beginning cooling system work, confirm that the supplied tools and adapters are suitable for your vehicle.

Pressure testing and vacuum refilling are different procedures. Pressure testing uses the hand pump, while vacuum refill operation requires suitable external compressed air equipment.

Never open or disconnect a hot, pressurized cooling system. Allow the system to cool and follow the applicable vehicle instructions.

Select the correct adapter, verify the connection is secure, and use only the pressure and coolant specifications approved for the vehicle.

This kit is intended to assist with cooling system servicing. It does not repair leaks or replace diagnostic and bleeding procedures.
