pressure

well that makes some sense. i just did the fronts on my 87. i pumped up the motive 20 plus psi and nothing came thru the wheel bleeder. i tried and tried but nothing. getting aggravated i pushed more pressure and still nothing. i even removed the bleeder center completely and nothing. so i had my wife get in and do the 123 hold still nothing. soooo..... after several attempts i told her to pump and then stomp the hell out of the pedal and if it goes to the floor too bad well finally i got a trickle of juice so i kept it up till i got new juice thru the bleeder.

the only thing i could think of was the abs unit must be doing something to the pressure or flow. i didn't know from what but the brakes work absolutely perfect. good pedal feel good height and stops great.

so i guess this action is normal???
