Hi y'all,

So, in the final stages of getting my car back on the road and was bleeding my brakes.

Then i started seeing my footprints around the garage and I couldn't figure out why... turns out the carpet was soaked with brake fluid!

Does anyone know what's going on - AND - Is there any way to fix this withOUT taking the pedal cluster out?

(one of my least favorite things in life to do)

Or should I just bite the bullet - pull the pedals and the master cylinder...(my second least favorite).

Thanks!!!

mike
