I have been trying everthing I know to try and fix my brakes but nothing is working. I even tried everything I read on the Woodsbuggy website. And KYbuggy1, I even tried your homemade pressure bleeder and I get nothing. I am coming to the hill climb in Ohio this weekend, sometime Friday afternoon. If there is anyone that can help me try to resolve this problem I would be greaty indebted to you ! I also have brand new Neal dual handle turning brakes and peddles, and two new rear brake calipers. I'm still willing to hear any other suggestions anyone has to offer...Thanks ! |

Resevoir new as well? I had good luck ussing a power bleeder, with the back end up on my trailer so it was putting the calipers higher then the res. Let it sit for a while if you can. Gravity will help move the air bubbles to the calipers. That is assumming there is not a place that is leaking in air. Got the diaphram in the res lid too? |

I wont be there until Fri night, but if they aint fixed by then I will do what I can. Sometimes brand new components can be bad, seen this plenty of times with m/c s. Bring your old stuff, or any spare stuff you got. |

If you are using old rubber hoses at the pivot points they may be clogged,, is fluid coming out freely when you bleed? |

Also with all being new, it will take a ton of fluid to completely bleed it out. I think i ran a half gallon thru mine into empty 2 litter bottles. |

A common mistake that guys make with new systems is not bench bleeding the Master. That needs to be done first. |
