YoungCR Posted March 13, 2015 Report Share Posted March 13, 2015 Yup reverse bleeding is the way to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jc43089 Posted March 14, 2015 Report Share Posted March 14, 2015 To bleed the master I have had no issues just letting some fluid run through the bleeder by gravity. Then let it sit for a half hour and pump it gently a couple times. Repeat the wait and pump a couple times and the air just rises and the gentle pumps let it go back to the reservoir.

ClassE Posted March 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2015 I went out and bought a small oil can like in the link above - as well as a vacuum bleeder kit (since I'll be redoing some brake lines soon and having to reveled the whole system anyways). So I've got acouple options to get it done.At gym... Then home to get to work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ClassE Posted March 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2015 Went to drain slave.... And no fluid to drain.Pulled the slave: shaft just slops around inside of it, seal appears to have been leaking fluid... AKA - It's Toast!Reinstalling new slave with braided line now... Hopefully that solves it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClassE Posted March 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2015 Tried the reverse bleed - but combination if not enough room under car and the emerging size fittings/hose is not working.Tried the suction bleeder, works well and have pedal feel now... But still think there's too much air in the system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jc43089 Posted March 15, 2015 Report Share Posted March 15, 2015 Now that you have some pedal pressure Just let it sit and pump it gently every half hour the air will rise out on its own. You can watch the bubbles come out of the hose into the reservoir. Sent from my potato phone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But still think there's too much air in the system. Ha, you think that is bad?! Try doing it with a trans that is not meant for the car! I had a bear of a time doing the reverse fill on my ZF.

ClassE Posted April 28, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2015 My procrastination has come full circle to bite me in the ass. Why didn't I get this shit done when it was snowing sideways and crappy out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GunMetalGrey Posted April 28, 2015 Report Share Posted April 28, 2015 Because it is hard to find motivation then. I get what you're saying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaiserRolls Posted April 28, 2015 Report Share Posted April 28, 2015 Motivation is non existent. I'm currently contemplating how naps are more important than my car while laying on my couch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
