Hey all
I am working on the brakes for quite some time now and have run into multiple issues
car specs:
- Rover P6 V8
- Duel line brake system
previous worked on:
- Replaced the master cilinder <--- could not be saved
- Rebuild the Slave Servo ---> rubbers and such
- Replaced rubbers in brakes
- Replaced flexible brake lines
- Replaced some of the brake lines on the rear
that sums it up
______________
I tried bleeding the brakes ---> first front left [driver side] and the rear at the same time --> brakes at the back did get small amounts of fluid after bleeding for about 15 min continued with the front right and the rear both front brakes are fully working but are getting stiff and staying in that postion for some time ---> removed the slave servo and after adding some lube tried bleeding again same result ---> tried with engine on slave servo starts making sounds and then again stiff brakes
perhaps any of you having experience with this and or suggestion what to try next
Would love to hear it
Tim.
*Fixed it ----> problem being that the diaphragm [the big rubber seal where the 2 vacuum compartments meet was not placed right after adjusting the seal between the 2 compartments the brakes worked well in the test drive wanted to thank all of the people who helped me out with this
