- One person can easily bleed, purge and flush the entire system from end to end, no need to pierce the bottle. The G2 kit and bottle remain completely sealed during the entire process.
- G2 quick connect fittings are modified for better clearance in confined spaces, an absolute must for Yamaha 4.2L and 3.3L F200 to F300 applications.
- Bottle Fill Tube engineered for a tight seal and elongated tubing means you can actually set the bottle down somewhere to check on other stuff (requirement for a true 1 person job), 2 separate swivel points with easy 360 degrees rotation at the bottle cap and the helm fill offer you unmatched flexibility as opposed to flimsy, leaky plastic fill tubes which are too short to set down, have poor or no ability to rotate without coming unscrewed, and are prone to leaking when exposed to direct sunlight….. sunlight!
- The Cylinder Attachment connects onto the bleed fittings with a simple push and click. Will not leak during bleed process.
- The G2 Kit comes with Bottle Fill Tube, Cylinder Bypass Attachment, Threaded Helm Fitting and Primer/Fill Fitting (the small section of tubing with male ends)

Bubble Purge Pro Dual Cylinder (ProDC)
In Stock!
The Bubble Purge Pro DC Kit is professional grade and efficiently handles all aspects of purge and flush on all SeaStar, BayStar and Uflex Hydraulic Steering system configurations.
For hydraulic steering systems with multiple helms, single or dual cylinders, liquid tie bar, power assist and or autopilot. Why is the Pro DC better:
Simplicity: Once air has exited the steering system at the cylinder bleed valves it can not re-enter. Air is routed through the return hose above decks to vent into the fluid bottle or to open air. The cylinder attachment can uncouple from the return hose for system flush. Standard length from end of cylinder bleed attachment fittings to end of return line is 25 feet. If your distance from cylinder to helm is greater than 24 feet, please see our Bubble Purge Pro Return Hose Extension which adds 12 feet to the return hose for longer runs.
Bubble Purge Pro DC is designed for multiple cylinder and single cylinder systems offering simultaneous dual cylinder bleed and flush with all known configurations of autopilot, Liquid Tie Bar, power assist, single or multiple helms. The Pro DC Kit includes the same parts as the SC Kit with the addition of Dual Cylinder Bleed Hoses (2) which connect to the valve manifold with easy and clean quick connects

- The Bubble Purge Pro Kits are completely self contained, remaining sealed for no leaks, minimal fluid waste and maximum efficiency!
- Got Pressure: Sealed bottle and fill tube allows operator to apply pressure by hand squeezing the bottle to speed up the process of helm fill and prime. Applying pressurized fluid to the helm fill while turning the wheel greatly reduces fill time and helps clear trapped air faster!
- Easy to clean and maintain, and compact design
- Complete instructions and routing/schematics available for download below!
- Compatible with Mercury Verado
