Just put a 1987 911 carrera front end on my car, rebuilt the brakes, new rubber lines, and some new hard lines as well. I set the venting clearance on the rear calipers, bled the system, and the brake pedal is still spongy...any ideas?

Agreed, rebleed it twice. Drive it and let it sit for 2 days, then rebleed it again 2 times.
It is amazing how difficult it can be to get all that air out. Good luck! |
