Hi all. Have just fitted a new rear master cylinder and it will NOT bleed properly. Mot is due now also so what I want is if anyone knew of an mot and repair shop combined in the cardiff area that is TRUSTWORTHY. Have rang around loads today but to no avail.

General / rear brakes
« on: 09 July 2016, 02:09:28 pm »
Hi all my names dave from wales and I have the fazer 1000, 2002 model.
I have just bought a second hand rear master cylinder from a breakers yard in Bristol because the old one I removed was in an appalling condition, rusty, scored in the bore etc...
So, I have fitted new one, ok second hand.. problem is I have filled the pot with Dot4 but its not going down through the system !
I am pumping the pedal while opening the bleed valves as per the Haynes manual but to no avail. Nothing is happening !
I am now in the process of leaving it for several hours and trying again later. Feels like I am doing something wrong !!


Does anyone think I may need a vacuum pump to draw the Dot4 through the system ?
 If anyone can think of a solution as Im getting desperate ( and missing all this sun ) !!!


Thanks for any suggestions.
dave
