Brake Problem Questions

[Robert Crandall]

Thank you for your advice. I'll hold it for now because I believe I may have it fixed again. I have thought that before but was quickly proven to be wrong, so I hesitate to claim full success yet. A friend told me that he had just bought and had success with a brake bleeder kit that works off an air compressor and offered to let me borrow it. I tried it this morning. It was easy to use, and it seems to have been successful. The brakes feel very good on a short trip around the neighborhood, actually better than they have felt in a couple of decades. Maybe I have had air in the lines for a long time. I'll report again after a trip to work and back which will include multiple fluid level checks.
