Hi Ross,
There often seems to be an unhealthy illusion that the
less one uses one's newer (for me 1987 is new) Morgan
..the longer it will last..almost as if it's use
should be reverently rationed.
Truth is the opposite..any machine used sporadically
will run sporadically. All those important little
rubber bits and gaskets kinda dry out without usage.
In this case, I am guessing that the rubber in one or
both of the rear brake sub-cylinders has cracked and
there is your leak or leaks. However, you then added
another problem by allowing huge amounts of air in the
system without bleeding it out. (not to worry,I have
been much dumber than that!) er...one other
problem...you speak of "two" grease nipples...are you
perchance trying to grease the brake bleeders?
If one little cylinder has gone the other will possibly
be following close behind. First..bleed the system of
air. then examine the two cylinders for
leakage..Better still...replace them..it is not that
difficult or expensive..just make sure you get the
right ones.
With respect, if you choose not to use your car too
often..then carry extra hoses, clips, gaskets,
silicone, rubber bits and a credit card when you do.
