Re: Brake Bleeding

I've had a similar issue so suggestions welcomed here as well.

My master was bench bled but in tilting into position and connecting tubing, can't rule out not getting air in again. Also not convinced in a drum system those vacuum setups do anything but draw air in from an adjacent cylinder. I also pumped a considerable time with one without much of anything happening except getting a tired hand. Suspect there is probably less resistance pulling air backward thru the piston cup next door than pulling the fluid.

I changed the bleed screws to Speedbleedshttp://www.speedbleeder.com/ for a one person operation. Bought them at Napa and will try doing front and rear wheels at same time when I get back to the project. That should eliminate any chance the dual master piston is floating to a supposed ruptured line position and messing things up.
