It was super cool to get behind the wheel, even though I'm sitting on a 6x6 piece of wood.
so bleeding the master and front went OK; we got nothing on the backs. I suspect the brake pressure regulator needs to be wacked or something. Please advise before I do something stupid. Some videos show a different BPR, this is a 75' ![]() |

If at some point you are not succesful, then your restriction is between that point and the last one that you were able to bleed. Have a water hose ready to rinse off whatever brake fluid spills on painted surfaces |
