1987 4WD Pick-Up with NO BRAKES!!!!

Hello

I'm hoping someone can help me out here.

Well, I'm a NEW proud owner of a 1987 4WD 4Cyl Toyota Pick-up.

When I got the truck it wasn't in the best shape.

So I decided to do some work on it.

I replaced the brakes and some rotten brake lines to the LSPV.

I also replaced the master brake cylinder.

I bled the cylinder and all 4 brakes.

After I finished bleeding the system I decided to test drive it .

NO BRAKES!!!!!!

I stopped the truck with the clutch and parking brake.

I bled the system again.

No change.

I found out that the truck has a LSPV that also needed to be bled.

So I did and the truck only braked after the 3 rapid pumps of the pedal.


The 1st the truck doesn't stop.

The 2nd the truck has some resistance.

On the 3rd pump the brakes operate normally.


I have bled all the entire braking system multiple times with only a very slight difference each time.

What can I be missing?


I JUST BOUGHT A RUNNING '85 PTOYOTA PICK-UP FOR $150
