aero06, - here's a few tricks for y'all.cut a lenght of broom handle to fit between the seat and the brake pedal/when the pedal is depressed.this holds the pedal to the floor and blocks of the master cylinder. - remove your caliper- install all new stuff. remove "stick" - now get your buddy to pump the pedal [if u don't have a power bleeder]. ready to bleed o.k. trick #2 when opening bleeder valve on caliper - tap the caliper w/plastic mallet on the cylinder of the caliper.this will disloge any air bubbles from the inside the bores.be sure to put a clear hose on the bleed nipple running into a clear glass bottle so that you can observe any bubbles. burt.
