Brake fluid does not flow out of brake bleeding valve.
I changed all the brake hoses (new). My master cyl. showed signs of leaking so I changed that as well (had one laying around). I bled the pass. rear, perfect. I bled the driver side rear, perfect. I tried to bleed the pass. front and it spurted out a bit of air and fluid and after that initial spit, nothing further. Same thing with the driver's side.
Are my caliper's stuck in a position where they do not let fluid to go thru, or do I have another issue? I tested my master cyl. before I put it in by placing the reservoir and pouring some fluid in and when I pumped fluid squirted out of every orifice with great force, so I guess the mast. cyl. is fine. |
One thought would be that you lucked out and got loose junk stuck in both front bleed screws.
The system is split diagonally so if it comes out a rear caliper, it should come out the opposite front corner unless there is a proportioning valve somewhere. If there is a proportioning valve (I don't think you have one), it could be stuck or need to be "reset" by pumping the pedal a few times with all bleed screws closed. Michael |
Replace the bleed valve or simply R&R to clean it and the orifice of debris if you cannot locate a new valve. I suspect you simply stirred up the crud and it needs to flush out thoroughly. But, keep in mind that the crud may be a sign the caliper is badly rusted and verging on failure if it has not failed already.
