Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this syringe safe to use with AdBlue?

Yes, the VS407 features a Viton seal which is chemically resistant to AdBlue.

How do I take the syringe apart for cleaning?

The plunger can be unscrewed from the top of the barrel, allowing for full removal of the internal piston assembly.

Can I use this for bleeding brakes?

While it can assist in fluid extraction, it is primarily a transfer syringe and not a dedicated vacuum brake bleeding tool.

Does it come with replacement seals?

The unit comes with a durable pre-installed seal, but it is recommended to keep the unit clean to extend its lifespan.

Can the flexible pipe be replaced?

The pickup pipe is designed to be removed and re-attached for cleaning, but replacement parts should be sourced directly via Sealey support.

Troubleshooting

Syringe plunger is difficult to move

Ensure the fluid is not too viscous for the temperature and check that the internal seals are clean and lightly lubricated.

Fluid leaking from the tip or valve

Verify that the shut-off valve is fully tightened and check the Viton seals for any debris or physical damage.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Resistant to a wide range of automotive fluids including AdBlue
  • Easy to clean and maintain due to simple disassembly
  • Large capacity reduces the number of trips to the fluid container
  • Integrated shut-off valve effectively prevents leaks

Cons

  • Not suitable for high-pressure fluid injection
  • Size may be too large for extremely confined spaces compared to smaller syringes
  • Manual pumping requires steady hand pressure for precise volume control

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To prepare the syringe, ensure the twist valve is in the closed position before drawing fluid. For best results, attach the flexible pipe securely before submerging it into the fluid.

Compatibility: The VS407 is compatible with:

  • Engine oil
  • Brake fluid
  • Coolant/Antifreeze
  • Diesel
  • AdBlue

Care Instructions: After use, unscrew the plunger assembly and rinse the barrel with warm, soapy water or an appropriate solvent. Ensure all fluid residue is removed, especially when switching between different types of chemicals, to maintain the integrity of the internal seal.
