So I have completely upgraded the brake system of my 72 914, 911 front suspension and brakes, SS Brake lines, 19MM MC, New Pads and a T line replacement for the rear, and while pumping the brakes, 10 pumps, brake pedal holds solid, 10 seconds of letting it sit, the pedal goes all the way to the floor. 10 Pumps solid and holds again.... I have done a regular pump 10 times and bleed, about 10 times on each corner, and I have done the 20ft 1/4 line run from each bleeder to the resevior trick (Awesome BTW!), But there is still no solid first pump pedal...
Any Ideas? before I sell the whole car for a Miata! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/screwy.gif) |

I had the same problem before and the solution was to re-bleed correctly. Dual Bleeders Bleed in the correct order or 72 has singles? I also found that I jacked up each corner independently as I bleed that corner and that help the air rise out and up from the new parts.. Also I found speed bleeders to be awesome as they do not let air back in and you can bleed by yourself in 20 min. even with the dual bleeders..
