Bled new Wilwood brakes but still spongy pedal
jimandemma:
Cracked the lines at the master cylinder and a few bubbles came out of the front line. Reset the proportioning valve cylinder and have no brake warning light now. Bled brakes again with some air coming out of the front calipers inner nipples. Did all this with the master cylinder line on and clamped. Rear boot sucks down but front doesn't. No difference in pedal!!! I give up!! Have to get someone out to fix this as I'm beyond my capabilities
jimandemma:
Correction, master cylinder cap on and clamped.
bfit:
Don’t give up if it worked before you changed calipers then it will work again.
May be some one has a pressure bleeder.
Members anyone have one.

Ps what Sudurb are you in
jimandemma:
North Arm Cove, 45km north of Newcastle. I'll buy a pressure bleeder and try that Friday
bfit:
I suspect you still have air in the front half , hence it’s not pulling the oil down in that chamber.
Do you have assess to gear to make a brake line.
