Re: Brake problem – cant lock them up

Kragen Master Cylinder, im doing the same thing. Im on my second one in 3 days, could not a full stream of fluid to the rear. Bought a new one from CPP, still have the same problem. Did you bench bleed your MC?
Also I bought a vacuum bleeder from Harbor freight, other than my problem it bleed the front in seconds.

no I didnt bench bleed. really glad I didn't as the pipe connectors where different then the original I had to get adapters. I had the master cylinder for a few months with no problem ( fist time the rear reservoir has been empty )

you have to beench bleed, dont worry Kragen will still take it back. Dry it off and take it back, thats what I will be doing tomorrow. In fact the first one I got was wet.
