    Brake Bleed Help

    Hi all,

    I have a problem that I have been trying to fix for almost a week now. I'm trying to bleed my brakes and no fluid is coming out, I've bench bled the master cylinder since i had to pull it to swap boosters. I've also made sure none of the lines are clogged. I'm trying to gravity bleed the system overnight, but I just don't know what to do, I've tried two different vacuum bleeders. I've also taken off all calipers to verify that they do not have blockage inside of them. Has anyone else had problems like this. It's pretty shitty that this happens right before the picnic.

    If you are getting fluid out of the lines but not the bleeders then its pretty clear your calipers need refreshing.

    If fluid isn't moving then start cracking fittings at the MC and work your way back while someone works the brake pedal.

      Have you removed the bleeder valve/screw completely? fluid might pour out of the hole, indicating that the bleeder valve thing is just clogged.

        Found the problem, it was a bad master cylinder, thanks all for the help.
