I know I'm a dumb ass but I'm having a very difficult time bleeding the brakes after installing these cadillac calipers up front and reman'd Volvo calipers in the rear. I've done the bleeding procedure about four times now and still have a pedal that sinks all the way to the floor so what am I doing wrong?
I've got a power bleeder pushing fluid into the master cylinder. I go to the right rear and open the bleeder screw. Let it do it's thing. Close it once the fluid runs bubble free then move on to the left rear. Repeat process. Then onto the front right and finally to the front left. Unscrew my power bleeder, reattach the master cylinder cap, and I've got a pedal that goes to the floor. I know I might have to bleed them a couple times after removing everything and installing new but this is kind of ridiculous. So what am I doing wrong?
Brake set up:
New '94 ford mustang gt master cylinder per mopar's advice.
cadillac calipers up front
beck arnley reman's in the rear.
new braided lines on all four corners.
I don't see any fluid leaking and my bleeder tests out to hold 15psi no problem. Maybe I need to pump the power bleeder up to more pressure? Been keeping it between 10 and 20 psi.
