Re: Need help with brake problem

by myford100@[EMAIL PROTECTED] Jul 22, 2007 at 02:44 PM

I'd go with the other fellow about the master cylinder, though it's
conceivable you have an air bubble trapped somewhere and just haven't
found it, conceivably in a wheel cylinder.  That's going to be
difficult to find.

One thing you might try is one of the bleeders that sucks fluid from
the bleeder valve, rather than relies on your pumping the brake pedal.
It might suck the bubble out.

I'm less confident of the swelling brake line, since they usually have
wire mesh and there just isn't much place for a spot to swell.  I
regret to say I can't guarantee it can't happen.

Good luck and let us know how it comes out.
