Then bubble will never migrate on its own down. Also, the system is not pushing on the bubble in any single direction. If the system is under pressure, the is uniform throughout the entire system. Essentially, the bubble, being lighter than the fluid, trying to float. Bleeding the system is different, there is flow of the fluid to help move the bubble.

His name is Colin Bailey. Colin worked for years with Rich Chrysler, which many listers will remember as being as a fastidious and extremely knowledgeable Healey restorer. Colin moved to Vancouver some 10 years ago and I’d have to track him down for you, but I have wanted to touch base with him again anyhow, so I am happy to do that.

<div>I dont think its the wrench, as both fit. It is more about the type of fiber washer and the proper placement of it. If you "wiggle" the fitting as you insert it by hand it will help to not strip out the casting (which is the scrafical item). If it does not start in smoothly, STOP and redo it again by hand. Carb bodies are expensive. Yes, WD-40 or even a bit of red grease will help the mating of the two threaded parts. "Genuine" SU parts are the best to use if you can find them. Hank<br>

<div>It sure sounds like air. The 100 system is difficult to bleed due to the placement of the wheel cylinders and bleeders. I like to pull out the fluid rather than push out the stuff. Use something like a Mityvac to do this starting at the right rear.
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The smallest bubbles will create a lot of pedal travel but if it pumps up to a hard pedal then its for sure air in the system. Keep the cap on the canister when bleeding and check under the canister for a wet finger. Moss has good seals for that purpose.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The word "new" in brake systems scares me, as there are so many crappy replacement parts made in foreign countries that look like good new items. I prefer to rebuilt original or sleeve them if necessary to use the original items. The seal kits are another story. Can you find good Girling repair kits. Many of the foreign replacements are knockoffs of the original. Use TRW (they bought Lockheed) only-not unknown brands...even new Lucas is not old Lucas.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I pumped and pulled gallons of brake fluid thru a MKI bugeye system only to find the seal stuck in the back of the master cylinder because the Moss purchased seals were too big! Use TRW. When I got the replacement seals from them, they had the same number stamp on the seal. They are using the same molds to make the seals.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Did you use red grease on all the threaded fittings? Check all for a wet finger. Hope this info lessens your frustration. A word that goes hand in hand with brake bleeding. Hank<br>

<div>Peter-yea, what I think happens there, providing there are no leaks anywhere else, is that under pressure, overnight, the system "pushes" the air bubble to the only place that it can get out-the vent hole in the canister!

<div>I have used this method also for "final bleeding"...could be a line item on an invoice to look official and garner more dough, Ha. Hank<br>

resistance after pumping the pedal, jam the pedal down hard and
leave it at least overnight, preferably longer. Do this repeatedly
& you will find the pedal comes up. Don’t ask me why, but I’ve done
this several times with my own and other people’s cars, and it
works!<br>

Then bubble will never migrate on its own down. Also, the system is not pushing on the bubble in any single direction. If the system is under pressure, the is uniform throughout the entire system. Essentially, the bubble, being lighter than the fluid, trying to float. Bleeding the system is different, there is flow of the fluid to help move the bubble.

<div class="yiv4382969344MsoNormal"><span style="">Richard, If you find someone in the US then great, but you are not far from the Canadian border and there is an outstanding panel-former and welder with A LOT of experience with Healeys in the Vancouver area. His name is Colin Bailey. Colin worked for years with Rich Chrysler, which many listers will remember as being as a fastidious and extremely knowledgeable Healey restorer. Colin moved to Vancouver some 10 years ago and I’d have to track him down for you, but I have wanted to touch base with him again anyhow, so I am happy to do that. I’ll attach a photo of Colin welding a new flange on the rear shroud of my BT7.</span></div>

Robert uses a great body shop in Eugene called Precision Classics-
they did my 100 and many, many Healeys for John Wilson. Wonderful
craftsmen with modern day skills. I highly recommend their work.
It's worth the trip to Eugene to have them finish your car.

<div style="color:black;font:12pt Comic Sans MS, sans-serif;">There is only one discharge connection on the 100 master cyl. If I leave the reservoir connected & disconnect the single brake line at the master cyl., then install a bleed screw & connect a plastic tube to it, will that suffice, if I pump in and out on the brake pedal? <br>

<div style="color:black;font:12pt Sans sans-serif;">We filled the master Cyl with fluid thru the reservoir port until fluid could be seen in the discharge port. Then connected the two lines. Is that what you mean?

Gary,
<div> Have you bled the master cylinder separately?</div>
