Guest thegod2k2 Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 Hi Guys an Girls (dunno if there are any??) anyway I'm new to the forums, and would firstly like to say a big hello to all Now to the problem, I have just bought a one man brake bleeding kit from halfords where you pressurize the brake reservoir with the aid of a spare tyre. I have used these systems before with great success, however this time I bled the system air came out due to new copper brake pipes fitted and a bit of crap. I bled the system twice and the end result was no air or dirt coming out the pipes. Now when I go up and down the drive to test the brakes (not on the road yet I will post in projects soon) the system feels like its still got air in, the pedal feels really spongy and when I pump it up its like there is a leak in the system. I can feel the system loose pressure through the pedal, however there is no fluid leaking from under the car. Has anybody got any ideas, I am a mechanic but have been out of the trade for a while so any help would be appreciated. Many Thanks Kev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
