I'll be out there tomorrow morning , bringing it back up to gleaming 😄

 

[Keith ABS]

 Took the Monaro out to a scorching Beauleiu

[TheBoy]

Drove it back from Penzance.

[Auto Addict]

Drove it back from Penzance.

That's the best way to get it back

having put a new caliper,brake pipe and flexi hose on the n/s/r a couple of weeks ago and failed miserably to get anything of a "pedal" I bought a pressure bleeder.Been to lock up today to try it and there is absolutely no fluid getting to the rear caliper! Not had chance to check further but suspect air in abs block[does that sound feasible?] if it is air in abs block is there any way to get it out without a TechII? as I don't have one of those and don''t know of anyone local who has. Any other ideas are more than welcome.

More likely to be a fault with the the abs modulator itself,seen this a couple of times where no fluid will pass from one outlet,not seen it on GM but have on peugeot and Bmw with Bosch units

Force fluid in through the bleed nipple, see if that helps at all (so reverse bleed).

Any sign of a crushed brake pipe?

[Raeturbo]

Try carefully with the engine running maybe?

[BazaJT]

Had thought of a crushed or somehow kinked brake pipe but no sign of either.Not sure how I'd couple up a feed pipe to the bleed nipple to reverse bleed it.ABS modulator sounds like it might start making things expensive,but haven't checked availability/price for one so don't actually know if that's the case.I just want one more year out of it.

Remove the cap adaptor from an easibleed and connect the pipe directly to the bleed nipple 

[BazaJT]

If I do try reverse bleeding what are the chances of it expelling any air trapped in the abs block if that is the problem? Also would reverse bleeding not force fluid back out of the fluid reservoir? If so with what do I catch it/stop it spraying all over the place?

[Migv6 le Frog Fan]

You could try a stick between drivers seat and brake pedal to hold the pedal down overnight. Reservoir cap off.

[BazaJT]

Cheapskate option  I'm liking it Can but give it a go I suppose,nothing to lose by it.
