I plan on doing some major flushing and bleeding of my brakes today. I don't ever seem to be able to get that good solid pedal feel when I finish doing this, on any vehicle. Anyway I replaced the master cylinder last night with a Brand New one, which was bench bled. If I can't get the brakes solid with this installed I'm going to start replacing hoses, cylinders, calipers etc. Would rather not cause everything else appears to be in great shape... Other items are:
1- Should I allow the pedal to hit the floor when the bleeder valves are cracked open?
2- According to Hayne's the bleeding order is RR,LF,LR,RF. (?)
3- Brand new front rotors and pads have been installed
4- No leakage of any kind is visible
5- Vacuum booster appears ok according to the book pumps up hard when the engine is off
Any helpful hints, techniques, ideas much appreciated. Thanks G.P.
P.S> Forgot to mention this is a 89 Spirit ES, T2 conversion, 5-speed
