Ok heres my deal ! ive read tons on this stuff and i thought i was doing it correct but maybe not so im ask`n for help .....new calipers,new pads, new fluid,power bled first then manuel multipal times.and still only have half a pedal still.No sign of air in the lines (bubbles)and flushed until all the little bits of dirt or(dirty fluid) whatever it was flowing through the clear hose on the bleeder was gone. Master cyclinder is only ten years old (could B the culprit)?? P-valve seems to be ok! when i pump the pedal i think i can hear it working ? what else could it be in that general area that sound like a spring do`n its thing..the car will stop and the wheels will almost lockup ....O yah i set the venting clearane at 0,008 thats what the book said to do both inside and out ..I was told 0.004 was what it should have been! could this be the issue..will 0.004 make that much defferants and if so will i have to start the bleed process all over again ..I think i will anyway ...so thats my story .....I didnt put any pepperoni grease on it Mr towle ! but if you think it will help!! LMAO (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) Thanks everyone

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol3.gif) Yuk, yuk, yuk... ye humor me. I wish I knew how to make bleeding a 914 a little easier. So I reset the venting clearance and did a quick bleed (no bubbles or lube) the accuator is right on 0.040 so put it all back togather and went for a spin.the brakes where better and after 6 or 8 panick stops to wear of the new of the pads its pretty darn good. I guess i was expecting the pedal to come to the top but thats ok that it dont because when i do track days i like to blip the throttle when i down shift and if the brake pedal is at the top it would be tuff to do.So after all the painstacking work and money i think it will be ok. i will run over some bumps for the next few days and check it again ..thanks to all for the inputs and ideas ..so its off to Bremerton for Saterdays AX Im gonna put the whack on Jon this time (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) YEAH RIGHT.....again thanks to all Mike Crandall |
