at my wit's end with brake bleeding (who else says "blake breeding" on accident?... ok just me (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)) anyways...
tried the old fashioned "get a buddy" method... this helped me find all my leaks... fun.. so after replacing all the lines, the master cylinder and a rear caliper, we tried again (3 weekends into this so far... ) Builds a little pressure, go to next wheel.. try again.. no change, but good flow.. after doing all 4 corners and getting good flow with no air at each one, STILL pedal almost goes all the way to the floor with little pressure... finally got to that point where you don't mind spending money to make the process easier, so i went to FLAPS and got the MityVac thing... $40 later i get home and go back to work... got the process down and got good flow at each tire again, reservoir staying full throughout... STILL sh*tty pedal feel... so at the time of this writing.. i quit! |

All Brake GuRus, I have read all of the articles and there was not ONE mention of using a normal garage compressor with a MotiveProduct bleeder adapter.
https://www.motiveproducts.com/collections/...uropean-adapter I can regulate at 15lbs, is there a -dumbass- thought I am missing on why everyone buys the pump bottle AND the adapter? Many thanks in advance! CTC911CTC |

Many thanks in advance! CTC911CTC No but there was an article on how to install a Schroeder valve in a reservoir cap so you could use the compressor. IIRC, the OP recommended setting the reg at 5psi.
