Re: Brake question for you folks

I am in the process of troubleshooting the brakes on my 62 clutch/brake master also. The reservoir was empty but damp when i got the truck and it had no brakes. the clutch "works" but the brake pedal is like a wet noodle. the only time i can get any pressure is when its running(vibrating) and i pump furiously. The pedal will get slightly stiff and it will have a smidgen of stopping power for as long as i pump every few seconds.

After that it starts dripping from the bottom of the mc reservoir case probably from the piston rod seals.

does this sound like the leak is the problem or air in the lines?? I ordered a rebuild kit today should be here tomorrow

i dont mean to thread jack!
