how do i bleed the master cylinder...
when i was bleeding my brakes no air was comming out, just liquid.

it takes 2 people, one to pump the brakes, the other to crack the lines loose from the mast cyl.

did you adjust the rear shoes? Make sure you did that, It's also a good Idea to have another person to pump the pedal instead of having topump the pedal then jump out of the car and close the bleeder valve. You should have somebody pump up the system and hold the pedal firmly with the bleeder valve closed, then you sllowly crack open the bleeder valve and have person tell you to close it before thepedal reaces the floor. Do that like twice for each assembly, it should get most of the bubbles out. I reallly have never seen anyone bleed their brakes with just on person though, so maybe there is another technique.

so do i unplug the master cylinder leads and then .. press the brake pedal untill all the fluid has come out ?

if you want to

do it just like the brakes, pump the brakes, hold it then have some one crack the ines to the master cyl and repaet until there is no more air coming out.

my master cylinder went out. and it just got soft. and the more i tried to bleed it it just went out. haha. just like sunk to the floor each time i stepped on it. in order for me to stop id have to push it all the way down then theres a hard spot on the bottom. scary ----. changed it and hey what do you know its normal again. anytime i replace my pads or release the pressure in my lines i only do the one i released and have never had a problem with abnormal brake wear.

sounds like you have an internal leak...check your lines

I looked at the master cylinder .. and i cant see a bleed valve

I have checked foe leaks non.

Ive been out and drove the car car, and used as much brakes as i could..
same level of brake fluid.


Can any one point out where the bleedvalve is for the master cylinder ?
