So, I put on the HEL brake lines and rebuilt the calipers. I've filled the master cylinder reservoir and now the brake handle can be pulled all the way back with no effort. When I start to pull, air bubbles pop out of the solution in the reservoir. Should I continue pulling until all of those little air bubbles pop out and will the tension in the lever return to normal eventually?
I've noticed reverse bleeding mentioned and what not in past posts, but I don't think I've ever seen the question posed exactly like this. Thanks for any help.
Ok, at first it wouldnt bleed through the normal bleeders. Now it is bleeding, but there doesn't really appear to be air coming out and there is still no effort required to pull the brake lever.
Looks like the answers to the first questions were all yes. Effort is SLOOWWWWLLLYYY increasing and now I can see the pads being pushed against the rotor.
It's gonna take a long *** time to bleed these. Oh, and I still cant see any air in what's being bled. But apparently there is some.
