Ok Im bringing this thread back....
Im bledding my brakes and have done everything posted above...
Im finally getting fluid coming out of the calipers but as soon as I put the speed-bleeders back (they are brand new) I get no fluid coming out...
I get fluid coming out from the old bleeders but fluid just seems to come out due to gravity (no pumping actions noted).... it just drips slowly....
Im wondering if my MC is toast
I get fluid pumped out of the rear brakes but its rather a weak squirt ....
I got lots of grime from the lines and the reservoir and I have used 3 bottles of brake fluid DOT 3.
All the fluid comes out nice and clean now...after working my way from the caliper all the way to the MC........ the pedal moves the fluid in the reservoir but not enough to get a pumping action at the end of the caliper...
Do you guys think that the brake booster needs to be operational?
As some of you know im in the middle of an engine swap and the truck has been sitting for over a year and I changed the brake lines about a month ago.
So the brake system has bee sitting dry for that month...would that make a difference with the brake booster/MC ??
Any info and advice is welcome and thanks in advance...
At this point Im thinking if I should get a repair kit for the MC or be better off getting the MC replaced ???
