Otto,
So I capped both outlets on the master and step on the pedal… very little movement then rock hard like standing on the ground. Then i connect the rear brakes and bleed the air. Step on the pedal and it goes to the floor very easily. With the front outlet capped i would think I would have some resistance in the pedal even if the rear bake lines had some air.
Is is possible that the MC is not large enough? This is a 3600 with 8 lug wheels. I can hear and feel the brake pads moving when someone pumps the brakes. Just not enough. They are adjusted out to slightly drag on the drums. Like I always do them.
I removed the MC and bench bled it again. Once done with the outlets capped the plunger will move about 3/16 inch and stop rock hard. I do get some spurts of fluid from the bottom of the MC chambers when i do this… is that normal?
I would think if i had a leak I would see fluid escaping but my fittings are all dry. How can air leak in if fluid can’t leak out?
