On my newly acquired FJ62, the brake pedal goes pretty much straight to the floor and there is almost no stopping power. With the car off, the pedal is pretty firm, but as soon as you start the car, the pedal goes to the floor.
I bled the brakes twice using the old fashioned (pump, pump, hold) method and that didn’t seem to make any difference. And yes, we followed the proper order and bled the LSPV as well.
After going through that twice, I figured the master cylinder was bad and so I ordered new and replaced that. Bench bled the master cylinder, then installed it on the truck, and then bled the lines the old fashioned way again. Still zero difference! The pedal goes to the floor and I have no stopping power.
I decided to use a vacuum bleeder today (just to be sure) and that made no difference either.
I’m looking for any help/direction on what to check next. There are no visible leaks anywhere and I’m not losing fluid. Thoughts??
