Do you have a favorite, better radiator bleeder key or are we all using the same crappy keys we've been using for 30 years?

    Crappy...buy them by the pack, usually break 2 or 3 a year. Would love to find a good one and stick it on my keychain.

    There was an error rendering this rich post.

    Just a piece of junk key I've had for years. No magic bullet here.

    I smell a patent.
    Maybe to fit a 1/4" ratchet.

    I have friends in the UK... when they come over I ask them to bring over some real bleeder keys. The little one is one of the US ones out there for contrast. So much better!!!

    Every bleeder key works fine for me. But, my problem is finding one when I need it.

    There is a square key bit. Next thing we know someone attaches it to the drill.
