So, how far do you push the pedal before you get action?

Mine goes about 1.5 inches and then gets very firm with very good stopping power.

I'm still with prop valve, you should know.

If I replace the rubber lines with SS, I'll try the "tee".

Mushy pedal? I don't think I've heard of that in 914Land.

I'm going about 4 inches. The longer the better right?

My name's Mark and I have air in my brake lines.

Speaking of brakes...How long will brake fluid last in an unopened can? Factory seal still in place?

Thanks
