GSR Brake Swap
I have an EG with a GSR Brake conversion..and when i try to bleed the brakes, I bleed n bleed but no fluid goes out..
anyone have this problem?
also when i push the brake pedal down, it sinks and you hear and feel a pop..
every so often the pedal gets hard but when you push again it sinks...
any ideas?
the hard lines in the front are new BTW
thanks x2156456457

Re: GSR Brake Swap
I would bench bleed or prime the master and see what it is doing. Just take the line off, make small lines (or rig something up) that go from the outlets back into the reservoir. make sure the ends are always in the fluid. pump the pedal a few times, or until there are no more new bubbles. should get slightly stiffer, but not really. Then hook it back up and go after the new lines and calipers. Dont wait too long either, the air in the new line can go back up into the master cyl if you, say, leave it overnight.
Air caught in the master cylinder itself is hard to bleed out all the way through the calipers. Seen it a few times on different vehicles.
Another thing you can try is using a vaccum pump bleeder. Never had a problem when I use mine. Picked it up for like $10 too
