This.
I owe you a beer, sir. I got it, thanks to this tidbit.
According to all the guides, it instructed me to keep the master cylinder 'Half-full'. However, with these, there's that divider that won't allow the rear brakes to get fluid unless the cylinder is super-full, and even then, through a pin hole.
So, I had ran half of the MC dry, and kept it topped up, but wasn't filling that one side. I spent 4 hours today pulling air through an empty MC....
I feel stupid, but got it done.
Side note, at first this design seemed stupid, but now it seems like a fail-safe in case the fluid gets really low, at least you have brakes up front. Am I correct in this assumption?
Thanks again to all.
