Well as some of you may know my booster pump went out. I swapped it with a good one. Now when IU try to bleed the brakes I get no pressure. We tried to bleed them for a good 20mins or so and I was not getting any fluid from the spigets. Any Ideas on what the issue is?

 

Have you bled all 4 corners AND the master cylinder?

 

hmmm forgot about the master cylinder... doh...

 

com on now just wipe that mud away.

 

IF IT WERE ONLY MUD... hOW I HATE THE BRAKE SYSTEM...

 

Brake systems are simple! Especially the Z's! Did ya bleed the master cyl?

 

nope forogt about that simple mistake... have to take off the heat shield. I had to quit after awhile its been getting in the 110+ here. I need a heat shield..

 

ok new issue... I try to bleed the master cylinder but the front one wont squirt out any fluid. The back one shoots out fine with no air... ideas??

 

more fluid... keep bleeding.

 

bench bleed it. Take it out of the car, stick it in a vice, push a dowel into it to get the piston to go in far enough to bleed all the air out. Run lines out of the bleeder screws on the side back into the resivours. Keep pumping it with the dowel untill only fluid goes through.
Get those bleeders tightened up and install it in the car again. Connect the brake lines to the bottom one at a time without losing any fluid if at all possible. Then bleed the rest of the brakes as normal but don't let the resivour run dry!

 

never thought of that...

 

Bleach is now an expert when it comes to bleeding brakes...

Rod.

 

Gravity bleeding does not work!!! LOL

 

yeah thats the first thing i tried, my car sits on a hill.... I'm still having stupid trouble with it.... lol I might have to take it to a place and have them force bleed it.

 

all right got it fixed finally.... now i need another boost pump for my yellow one... more to come on that.

 

actually gravity bleeding dose work, I did it on a small ud cab over in the shop I work at after replacing the master cylender, and everything went smoother than gravy. took me only a matter of minutes.
