Why would more pressure be applied to one brake rotor?

[traildog]

Do I really need to bleed all of them again? I used all of the fluid.......DANGIT!

if you pump the pedal 5 to 10 times, then crack each wheel just once, you'll know if theres air on the first try.

with the soft pedal (if its air in the master) it could have been pushing air into the lines and it could be trapped.

i use a clear tube on the end of the bleeder nipple to a bottle to keep things clean.

i also made a one man bleeder, tube and a bottle, but that way uses a lot of fluid, (wastes it)

That's what we'll try in a few. Pump 8 times and hold pressure on the pedal, correct?

 

[traildog]

Then crack and close the bleeder?

 

[Scottydoggs]

correct. pump the pedal, crack the bleeder, the pedal pusher holds the pedal to the floor till you make the bleeder tight, then he can re pump them.

I'll be danged......there WAS air in them lines......Pedal is 50% harder now, but, still feels more squishy then I think it should....

 

[Scottydoggs]

that could be the rest of the air in the lines to the calipers.

I'm going to have to get more fluid tomorrow.......
