Hi Bob,<br>
I have read that synthetic brake fluid can very easily suspend air which<br>
results it a spongy brake pedal. One of my friends filled his brake system<br>
with synthetic fluid by placing a screw driver in the master cylinder on an<br>
angle and slowly poured the fluid down the screwdriver shaft to reduce air<br>
being mixed into the fluid by just pouring it into the reservoir .<br>
Not sure what you could do to remove the air but my guess is that is what<br>
you are dealing with.<br>
Maybe someone else has a solution??<br>
Regards<br>

Did you adjust the rear brakes and are the wheel cylinders sliding as they<br>
should.<br>

Subject: [TR] Brake problem<br>
<br>
I have a 1965 Triumph TR4A. I had a leaking rear brake cylinder so I decided<br>
to replace the master cylinder, both rear wheel cylinders, front calipers,<br>
and a couple of lines that broke trying to remove them. I bled the system<br>
twice because of a spongy pedal. The pedal goes close to the floor before<br>
engaging. I checked to see if it had a restrictor valve and it doesn't.<br>
There are no fluid leaks. I changed to synthetic before flushing and<br>
replacing everything. Does anyone know of a way to adjust the pedal play? Is<br>
the problem with the master cylinder not engaging soon enough and if so what<br>
do you do about it?<br>
Help!<br>
Thanks, Bob<br>
