Need help with bleeding new brake lines LONG
Ok here is the deal. When I reinstalled my 350 the engine swung out (and snapped like a twig I may add) the brake line going to the front brakes. I have replaced it with one from inline tube. Here is the issue. I started at the pass side front. I pushed the pedal 10-12 times and when loosened the bleeder valve nothing happened. Just old fluid. So I snugged it back up. Pushed 10-12 times more and finally clean fluid.
Then I decided to let it gravity bleed for 5-10 mins. Barely moving. So I snugged it up again. Pushed on the pedal 10-12 times and opened up the drivers side. Talk about a flood. It blew the hose off of the bleeder valve. So I snugged it back up pushed 10-12 times and loosened. Got a bunch of air. I repeated process until I got all of the bubbles out and clean fluid. I then went back to the pass side and opened it up. Same issue there. Fluid barely coming out even when I push on the pedal. Now for the question. Am I doing something wrong? Thanks
