Front brake bleed issue
#5
Well we tried cracking off the banjo bolts and nothing is working, like I say fluid is coming out into the bleed pipe and it has minimal / no air but the lever has no pressure at all. The master cylinder is creating pressure, my dad covered the hole with his finger while I pumped the lever and there was definite pressure. This is doing our heads in, somehow fluid has managed to leak onto the mudguard and a tiny bit on the wheel too and taken away some paint just to add to the misery. I don't know where to get a syringe or oil can or whatever to back bleed, we are going to completely free up the brake lines and hang up the calipers as high as we can above the master cylinder and leave it overnight. I just honestly don't see what we're doing wrong, was meant to be the first ride on the bike today and we had a decent route planned but its just sat there like a sack of shit as usual going nowhere...
