hi all,
Had a bit of a problem when bleeding my brakes through, so lets start from the beggining.
removed my rear brake lines off my mk1 as i was putting a 4 stud axle on and the brake lines were in different places on the axle, luckily i had the whole mk2 car that the axle was coming off so i also removed the rear brake lines from the mk2...
on fitting the mk2 lines to my mk1 i noticed that the mk1's rear brake lines were both on the right but the mk2's were one on the front left and one rear right...
i decided to change the mk1's brake lines so that they looked like the mk2 setup all went on ok blah blah..
when going to bleed the brakes today started on the front left all went ok.... moved onto the rear and nothing.... no fluid was getting to the rear? cylinder is filled right up and stilll nothing?
any ideas guuys am in a right fiddle with this could it be the brake lines? do i need to change it to the mk2 cylinder?
all help welcome!!!
il put some pics up to help
