brakes

[Davie]

there is different methods but bleeding from the furthest works for me,
maybe the caliper's are seized?

[Jay Rockett]

Your bleed nipple on the caliper could be blocked.. happens over time!

Take it out completely, and put a bolt in the whole to stop all the fluid escaping then get an airline and blow into the top of the nipple.. Theres a tiny hole, very hard to see, and its usually below the threads, the opposite end to the big hole at the top basically and air should escape through that.

If it doesnt then the nipple is blocked, might have to spray brake cleaner or something similar to help free it up and get a tiny drill bit that fits inside the large hole and try clean out the nipple with that also, then keep trying to get air to flow through from the top of the nipple to the bottom where the small hole is!

turns out the master cyclinder was fucked so fitted ne one and bleed up again but still problems
first time i took it up the road was perfect handbrake working the lot when got back noticed the brakes sticking a bit so took it up again and the brakes started to get stuck worst and worst on it and the brake pedal was solidso i changed the valcum valve on the top and it releasiied the brakes a bit but the brake pedal is still solid
