Now what's next?
After poor results bleeding the brakes I asked for help and did the
following:
Bought the "real" EZ Bleeder with proper fittings (and attached to source
of air pressure)
Bought and installed new master cylinder while waiting for ez bleed.
Change a leaking brake line.
NOW I'M READY TO GET THIS DONE!
Result=
Pressure seems to be going from source, to ez bleed container containing
new fluid which is attached to master cylinder.
Open right rear bleeder - no fluid comes out (it did come out with old
master cylinder and I flushed it until clean fluid came through)
Tried left rear cylinder - same result, no fluid comes out.
I didn't try the front.
The level in the master cylinder was still full. No leaks found anywhere.
Seems like the master cylinder isn't pushing fluid.
I disconnected the ez bleed system, replaced the master cylinder cap and
tried to push fluid through by pumping the brake pedal. No pedal pressure
and no fluid out the bleeder.
I'm stumped.
Any and all suggestions accepted.. Nice summer days and the Sprite sits
in the garage. GRRRR.
Thanks.
