Bleeding brakes on Unique-Help
To bleed the back brakes on my Unique I disconnected the front adjusting rod and bleed the brakes using the two man system and had no problem.
On the front brake brakes I disconnected the back adjusting rod and did a gravity feed and then did the usual pump and crack the bleeder on the caliper and could never seem to get all of the air out and had a spongy pedal. After running quite a bit of fluid through the lines with no luck I disconnected the flex line on the right side and blocked off the brake line with a plug and bled just the left wheel and got a hard pedal. I then blocked off the left wheel where the flex line connects and got a hard pedal with just the right wheel connected. But when I connect both front wheels I can't get rid of the spongy pedal.
By isolating each wheel I am proving out the master cylinder and that respective caliper, right? What am I missing?
