[Spridgets] brakes*

[dlancer7676 at comcast.net]

EZ Bleed feeds brake fluid into the system by air pressure doesn't it?B  I
like that system as opposed to the Mighty Vac type of system that sucks the
fluid through.B  I bought a Mighty Vac and could never totally get the air
bubbles out of the lines.B  Not worth a crap.

I just spent quite a while jacking up various wheels and bleeding the
brakes of my Sprite. Used an EZ bleed and cleared some air and old fluid.
I had good brake pedal pressure for about 30 seconds and now have
practically nothing. B I can get a little braking if I pump a few times,
but it's dangerous at best..
I paid a shop to install a new slave cylinder last year and the system
hasn't been the same since. B At first the gears were grinding and I had
them fix it.
Do I now need to bleed the slave cylinder? B If so, what's the easiest
method to get at it.
Thanks.
