I'm back to a familiar but hated place, and I would appreciate some help. It's where my brakes people are trying to get the brakes right in connection with a fluid change and EU inspection ("MOT"). The guy who previously said the system can't be properly bled without arresting the shuttle in the four-way cross thing by the booster, now says that said shuttle has no bearing on the bleeding or fluid passage apart from triggering the warning light when connected (it is not). He says that if this dual circuit booster feels hard and notchy he could spend hours and not get it right, and that the time/money spent far outweighs the cost of a NOS item.
I have a firm enough pedal but it keeps changing ever so slightly, indicating air somewhere in the system. Once every now and then it's like an air bubble has shifted and I have fantastic, progressive response and the car will stop on the nose - feels like how it ought to be. But then the brakes drag for quite a while, ie. until the air bubble moves again.
What's the deal?
(History: one tandem booster, overhauled with a seals kit. Not sleeved, no can do in these parts).
