Maybe you can just buy a portable air tank and fill it from the air
compressor at the filling station.  If you get a good seal on the resevoir
fitting, you won't need much air for the pressure brake bleeder.
I've tried it all, the a vacuum pump, check valve...   Nothing works well
except a pressure bleeder.  I got mine from Steve D., a little expensive,
but very well made -- will last forever.   If I could only get an adaptor
made to fit older GM cars (my truck and Firebird).
