02bluemxshee Posted October 9, 2005 Report Posted October 9, 2005 (edited) I cant seem to get my rear brakes to work and i thought maybe you guys can help. About 3 months ago i put on a ebrake block off and put a new rubber O ring in the caliper. Brakes still havent worked for a while now and i have no f**kin clue as to whats wrong with em. I Just got new pads a straight rotor put them in and and nothing, no pressure. So i called a local shop and he let me in on his secret put a pair of vicegrips on my line and see if it builds pressure. I dont know if that would work or not so i tried it and still no pressure. There is fluid in the caliper and line just no pressure. Ive tried bleeding and bleeding and bleeding them for hours. Still nothin so if you guys have any ideas itd be great to hear em. Im also thinkin about gettin another mastercylinder and tryin it. Edited October 9, 2005 by 02bluemxshee Quote
Hilarious Posted October 9, 2005 Report Posted October 9, 2005 Sounds like the master cyl to me. You can get a kit to rebuild it, i believe for bout 15 or 20 bucks. A lot cheaper than a complete new master cyl. Quote
sandman121383 Posted October 9, 2005 Report Posted October 9, 2005 heres what i did. i adjusted my petal so it was high, touching the clutch cover. then i bled them best i could. then i adjusted the petal down so it wasn't rubbing the clutch cover. seemed to be the only way mine would work good. then take it round the block and use the brakes then repeat the process to make sure they didn't leak or anything. i put a master cyclinder rebuild kit in and some people told me my lines could be expanding so that might be part of the reason why ? ? ? braided is best. good luck Quote
