brake problems
alright so my problem is when I hit my brakes the pedal goes straight to the floor. I have replaced the m/c twice, put new calipers and wheel cylinders and bled the system repeatedly. Any ideas? Thanks

Re: brake problems
if it goes right to the floor, and thats it, thats an issue with the booster, or possibly the linkage to the pedal.

Re: brake problems
if you pump the brakes do they build pressure, if so check for leaks in the system if not check for trapped air

Re: brake problems
so when I pump breaks it always they same feel, can't be booster cause pedal still moves and master cylinder gurgles when breaks press(cap is on). M/c has been bench bled and so has the hole system

Re: brake problems
if the m/c is gurgling then there is air in the system try bleeding it again good luck some times it can be a pain when everything is new

Re: brake problems
alright so today me and my step dad figured it out. One of my parking brake cables isn't working so we adjusted the drums and now I have pressure back in my pedal. But now I need to replace parking brake cables and I'm going to bleed it one more time to be sure
