I agree to Motive bleeder is simple to use. I screwed up when I didn't top off the reservoir and sucked in a massive air bubble.. that's where we are now... air trapped in the ABS and a Durametric that was "supposed" to cycle the ABS. She's going to German European Imports to get fixed.

Randy, I need to return the bleeder back to you. Any time you need Durametric for anything (except cycling the ABS lol) you have a free ticket with me anytime.  Chris

$929.38 cents later My brakes were bled and power booster replaced (not including the tow truck). German European Imports in Plano did the work. I thought that was a bit pricey, but I desperately needed to get this fixed. Sam was originally going to charge me $1,200 after taking a look it, and I told him I'll call the tow truck and come get my car. He said he'd work with me and get the part cheaper. So $929 was the deal. I got my car back filthy dirty as it was left outside. I would have felt a little better if I got it back clean like it was the day I had it towed. I also noticed I got drip stains on my headlight lens I suspect brake fluid was spilled, and really feeling sick to my stomach. I can't prove they did it unless I noticed it right when I picked up the car (but it was filthy dirty). The car sat in my garage for a week as I was out of town, and discovered the stains last night. I'm now considering selling the car.

for the record... It is possible that I could have caused the stains myself, but I really have no way of knowing. I was extremely careful when handling the power bleeder. I think I would have noticed this already if I would have caused it.
