After one of the longest brake rebuilds known to mankind (ask Eric Shea- I bought the parts 2 years ago), I just can't get the air out of the brake lines.
By chance someone asked if I had bleed the new master cylinder and I never knew it mattered. I have searched the forum and have not found the procedure. Before I before I drive it frightfully to a nearby mechanic, can anyone point me in the proper direction? Thanks George Delaware |

Yes, it works great. I don't pump the pedal until you get all the air out of the system. It's possible to invert a seal on the master cylinder if you actuate it dry.
