Hard Brakes Cant bleed them.
Hard Brakes Cant bleed them.
Hello. I have an 89 GTA, Its been sitting for 6 or 7 years, I just replaced front rotors, calipers and pads, First I tried to change the fluid but it wouldent bleed. The pedal is really hard and does move slowly,I got fluid from the drivers side but nothing frome the passengers side except what was in the caliper, I took the hoses off the calipers to gravity bleed but nothing.
I diddent have time to take the hoses completly off to see if the hoses were bad. The car was sitting on pavement and the metal lines looked good when we had it on the lift. I havent touched the back breakes at all yet. I think I have ither bad hoses or, a stuck master cylender <---mis spelled! LOL. Any advice would be helpful. Thanks guys!!

Re: Hard Brakes Cant bleed them.
Replace the hoses. probably collapsed inside. After sitting that long I would suggest replacing all 3 hoses and the rear hydraulics and strongly consider the Master Cylinder. No telling what condition the seals could be in
