Did I miss something?
I changed out my old MC for a new 19mm per the Pelican article, and changed out my soft lines while I was at it. I've bled all 4 corners with a vacuum pump, but the pedal still goes to the floor. I cant get it to pump up at all, even depressing it multiple (~50) times. Help? |

i've never tried a vacuum system. I bought a second cap for the brake resevour and hooked up a tube connected to my air compressor. I bleed my brakes by pressurizing the resevour with something under 10 psi. It seems to work reasonbly well but I still feel the need to bleed some more the old-fahioned-two-person way. the pressure system is great if I can't get my wife to come down and give me hand. Everything I've read on this board seems to indicate that you just have to keep bleeding the system. I don't know why, but the teener brakes seem to be very difficult to bleed. Try getting an assistant to help you up,down,up,down,up,down..............
