[Spridgets] A While Back I Had an Issue With my Brakes

Hi Kirk,

I'd first fix any leaks in the system before bleeding.  It needs to be done
in that order!

You also need to see if the brake M/Cyl has worn out rubber and is leaking,
maybe internally!  Possible rebuild time.

>So I am going to bleed the system again. .  put a new cap on the thing
which
I hope will solve the problem.  (And fix the drum brake leak on the
passenger side).

Unvented caps on the M/Cyl aren't likely a cure!

>PS The odd thing is that the clutch has always worked fine.

It's a separate system, unrelated to the brakes!
