02 rsx-s

Today I installed Centric premium rotors, stop tech street pads, stop tech braided lines, and ate super blue.

I bled the brakes with a mighty vac system that hooks up too my compressor. Bled about 1 bottle through the whole system. All fluid was flushed and coming out blue.

After I was done I took the car for a ride, It stops fine but the pedal now has to be pushed almost all the way too the floor.

I am guessing I have air in the system? never really used this mighty vac before but I have nobody here to pump for me

Advice would be great.

You don't need anyone or any vacuum to bleed your brakes.

You can use a vacuum hose and an empty water bottle (that you then re-fill with a bit of brake fluid).

You might have some air trapped in a line...or you have a caliper slide that is stuck. Check that your caliper slides all move back and forth freely. If they do not, you can free them, clean them, and grease them...or get a new hardware pack...or buy a new loaded bracket.

There's high temp ceramic brake grease available at most parts stores. Don't use anti sieze no matter what anyone tells you. They're wrong and I'm right.

Also....where did you get blue brake fluid? I'm calling the cops.
