It does not hold much vacuum, but enough to suck the juice out of stuff like
that.
As for the new Tork Converter Bolts Tool:

I tried it on the friend's '69 Today, it works GREAT even if you have plenty
of clearance, working on turnable engine from below. LOVE IT. Shoulda done
it Right years ago.
Pulling upper front A-arms off the car to redo, the RH was a bit of a tough

Had to saw thru one bolt, it's still stuck in there as you see. An HOUR to
pry that sucker loose. Another hour to remove the bushings. LH unit... still
on the car. My biggest pry bar will not loosen the thing from the bolts
securing it to the frame. Need real heat source. Soaking in PB right now.

Say... ain't there s'posed to be TWO of them pusher links from wheel
cylinder to shoe?
Oy vey.
I thought the longer brake shoe went on the rear or aft side, as that side
gets crammed harder against the drum during normal [fwd motion] stops...
I'll have to ck on that.
