Master cylinder repair kits
Hi , everyone just finishing off my newley restored GT380 and am having trouble trying to bleeed the front brake. I think it may have somthing to do with the new master cylinder repair kit. I put it together as logic would see it but can't seem to get it to bleed. Can any one tell me the correct order to fit the cylinder parts as I'm guessing that this may be the problem.
Thanks Richard

FRONT BRAKE BLEEDING
Hi,had same prob when did my master cylinder seals on my 550,just would not bleed.A mate of mine said try from caliper cylinder & keep topping up with a small syringe with brake fluid & squeeze the piston in with a cramp.So you are bleeding from btm to your master cylinder & heh presto worked perfect.You need to unbolt the caliper so you can pull piston out as far as you can to get enough brake fluid in to get to the top cylinder.
Cheers Dave.
