Bleeding brakes!
Posted: 16 Aug 2015, 15:52
I have fitted all new brakes, master cylinder slave cylinders, calipers and all new brake pipe through out.
On attempting to bleed the brakes (with Draper brake bleeding kit with one way valve) starting at the rear right (as per Haynes manual).
All I get is a continuous (never ending?) flow of air bubbles in the expelled brake fluid in the bleeding kit tube.
It seems as though air is getting into the system?
I can't see how though, the fluid reservoir is kept topped up during the bleed process.
I am just about at the end of my tether, I don't know what else to do. Just about in tears through the frustration!
Any help very gratefully received.
Much thanks in advance
Andy
