Re: What did you do today?

I would look carefully at the servo pipe work. I had a problem with one the other week that when the pipe was off it fell into a coolant drain tub and got a little water inside. That was enough to fuck up the one way valve. Blowing it through with compressed air really buggered it up so I had to ch...

Re: What did you do today?

Van update. Seems to be working. Bled system again using old fashioned way as well as an air bleed system. Loads of White floaty bits came out driver side rear,driver side front had a monumental air lock. Passenger side had a small amount of air. Taking master cylinder off had allowed air we thought...

We did first thing there was brake fluid going to pedal but it seems more like moisture/condensation. We have had the master cylinder off and the seal is dry as well as the rod so it can't be brake fluid like I first thought.

Re: What did you do today?

There is also a hiss when brake pedal pushed. It's always done that though but I can't recall if I've had it on something else or not.

Re: What did you do today?

The original one on the van was dry. The moisture under the pedals doesn't feel or smell like brake fluid. I always have my heaters on warm to my feet too because diabetes.

Re: What did you do today?

It's all gone to shit on the van front. Me and friend made a crack on getting the brakes held,bled and bled as well as for good measure rebled again. Spare servo looked worse than the current one and the master cylinder had moisture on the rod which says the seal isn't in rude health so decided to s...

I can't contort myself under the dash to undo bolts for the servo. My friend helps me and does the heavier stuff underneath as I cannot get under or crawl on my back anymore.

Ordered a new cambelt kit,wheel bearing and rear brake shoes for the van. £240 quids worth of bits including the few quid I paid a garage to press out the old bearing and press in the new one on the front hub.
