brake problem
i just finished doing a rear disk conversion on my 95 civic hatch back. the disk conversion come off a 96 del sol, i bleed the brake doing a x patter(driver front, passenger rear and so on). when i brake the pedal seems to be to low is their any way that i can adjust the brake pedal or should i try bleeding the brakes more.

if im reading that right, and you did type that in right, you bleed the brakes wrongs. the x pattern is right, but start from furthermost of the master cylinder.

hmm.. i've never used the "x" pattern.. always done furthest from the master cylinder to the closest.. im ASE certified and thats how i was trained but i'm sure that as long as u start furthest away u can get the same ending effect.. i'm not dissing anyone intelligence in the matter.. people are trained differently in different places so i'd say as long as u start from the furthest from the master cylinder you can get a better outcome
