Title: Bleeding brakes with hydraulic hand brake??
Post by: Mkracing on March 26, 2012, 22:06:15 pm
Hi guys, is there any speciel way to bleed the brakes with a hydraulic hand brake??

I have CB wide 5 brakes in the front, and csp 205 mm race brakes in the rear. But I think the hydraulic hand brake causes some problems. I Also have line lock installt.
The pedal goes way down to the floor...!!

And there is no leake anywere!!

Hi Morten!

I had the same problem!

Pump 3 times with the pedal, open the valve at the calliper, and pump one time with the handbrake,
hold the handbrake and close the valve.
Do this 2 or 3 times round the car and you have preassure on the pedal...

Cheers,
Basti

Still can get the brakes to work as I will. Can it be the master cylinder?? Its the one with (20.64 mm) Is it to big, for the small kalibers from strange enginering??
