It feels like my brake master cylinder is going bad on my 1974 2.0. Since I've never rebuilt one or replaced one on the 914, I'm looking suggestions and parts sourcing. Any help out there?
Thank you. |

Do you have two bleed nipples on each caliper? Or, do you have one?
If you have two bleeders on each caliper, do both or you will be fighting this until the earth explodes into tiny particles. I use the tool from Phoenix Systems. On man operation. I thought the master was bad on the one we have in now....nope.....just was an extra challenge to get the air out. Now it stops as it should. |

Thank you, Cal44. There are two bleed nipples, but I can only assume that my mechanic checked this. (Yeah, I know "assume" can be challenging.) I'll look into this. |
