Firstly I would like to thank TheBoy & Mrs TheBoy for showing me how to do a full brake bleed yesterday.
I would also like to thank TheBoy for letting me borrow his brake bleed kit (bit of clear pipe and a pot)
Glad to report a did a full bleed on my Project A and replaced the fluid... and it now brakes much better. - Very satisfiying feeling since it had no braking at all to begin with!
Quite chuffed now I have done it, first real major thing I have done on my car.
Some pictures of the days events:
Jacked up back passenger side in the garage....
With the pipe attached to the brake bleed i got mother to pump the brake, on shouting the command 'push' she pushed and held the pedal, i then realsed the nut slightly and let the old brake fluid flush out. As soon as it began to slow in presure i closed the nut. Then gave the command 'Release to mother' - This continued several times to drain the system, then once it was topped up it was done again to get the new liquid though.
When i first started i put a little bit of brake fluid in the pot, just incase it tryed to suck back. Instead of air it would get brake fluid.
The tube going to the pot....
Yummy, old brake fluid.
Managed to flush a lot of air out of the system, well chuffed
