<p class="MsoNormal">At my wits end with this problem <span> </span>...</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The brakes on my BJ8 have always been
hard and bit well with little pedal movement.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Changed <span> </span>out the front
callipers (to 4 pot) and the problems started.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">After repeated bleeding on first push,<span>
</span>pedal went to the floor.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">After 2/3 pumps the pedal came right up
and held.<span> </span>After about 30 secs of no pressure
on pedal <span> </span>goes to the floor again.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Pistons are all in contact with pads and
pads with disc; all looks good at callipers.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Suspecting a faulty MC changed it out.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Primed the new MC with fluid prior to
installing.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Same story after another 1.5 pints of DOT
4 fluid focusing mainly on bleeding front callipers and
booster (new); <span> </span>also bled rear drums.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Pedal still goes to the floor on first
pump and comes up after pumping as before.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">No visible leaks and inlet from reservoir
shows no leaks: tapped callipers with mallet to dislodge any
air pockets.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am using the one man bleed system a
with clear tube into a container and close the bleeder valve
<span> </span>with no visible air at nipple and full tube of
fluid to container. BTW also changed clutch MC at same time
and no problems with bleeding etc.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Have now run about 1.5 pints of fluid
through the new MC - <span> </span>perhaps am being <span> </span>too
impatient ? <span> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">But no evidence of any air after about
0.5 pint. Typically how much fluid is required to clear air
from MC and lines ?</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Now sort or suspecting the inlet to MC
from reservoir but for life of me cannot see how air can get
in with no visible fluid leaks,</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Any ideas from the more AH experienced
listers appreciated.</p>
