RE: 69 Master Cylinder Brake Help ASAP plz
It does take longer if you don't bench bleed. Will the brake stay hard after you pump it up? If so, you just have more bleeding to go.

We are properley bleeding the brakes, the fluid is clear now, we dont see much bubbles. The pedal goes to the floor when the car is running and u have to pump it up to get brakes, which means u are compressing the air in the lines resulting in braking power. So i guess it just takes ALOT of brake bleeding if you dont bench bleed the master when u reinstall it. Anyone else confirm this?

Yeah it stays hard after i pump it up. Lol i'm tired of, Ok DOWN, UP, DOWN, UP, DOWN, UP etc. etc. And i can only do this when i have a freind to help out lol. Will Bench Bleeding the Cylinder now fix it? I mean isnt all that air that i didnt purge in the cylinder in the beggining already pushed into the lines?
