Frozen brake caliper pistons

installed the master cylinder kit & pumped the pistons out, cleaned 'em up.
man, bleeding the brakes was a mish. ended up rigging a squeezy bottle up & squeezing fluid back up thru the system from the caliper end, even that didnt get all the air out.
went to the rebel manual it said, pull lever in, let bleed screw off, then re-tighten, then let lever out slowly. Did this about 10 times whilst refilling reservoir, a bit of air came out each time, & it ended up good.
front brake feels real good now.
Im used to bleeding car brakes but this seemed much more of a mish than that, dunno why?
still got a couple more things to do before it goes in for compliance.

Brett, try hooking into a brake master from a car. Way more power, and more robust.(no need for more seal episodes

aint it a bitch getting old. there was a second page and i didnt even see it. Oh well, more d d d drugs, i say.

bro vucuam pumps and shit work alright but like i said earlier in this post get a fuck,n big syringe from the vet and use that to drag the air through works overtime bro.remember drag it don't push it .
