After honing out all 6 wheel cylinders last year and installing new kits, I still lost 2 cylinders. We bled them many times before going for wood, but I lost a rear one half way back. I crimped of the rear flex line, then lost a front seal just after I got home. This is on my '53 Chevy 2 ton.
A mechanic says I need to bench bleed the cylinders. First question, would it not be easier to plumb in a bleeder valve at the highest point on the bracket? 2nd; Are my pads shot now that they have been soaked in brake fluid? I sent them out to have religned last year.
