No need to run the engine to apply pressure to the system.
It would be very helpful for your situation.

Blue, you talked me into it. I just ordered a kit of my own, this one: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BYJTZHJ2

I liked it better than Harbor Freight's. It will be here Wednesday.

Thank you for your influential contribution.

One can never have enough "quality" tools.
I have also used the coolant pressure tester to "force bleed" brakes.
I just have to watch the brake fluid level in the master cylinder reservoir so it doesn't get to low before topping up.

Remember, it's not a project unless you have to buy a new tool.
