OK thanks, Capt. - good stuff! My rear master is the OEM, not after market. I already planned to remove and double check it, based on this...
Good afternoon. OK here's the latest..... Tried using my rear brake line this morning but it wasn't happening, so took it over to my mechanic and...
Cleaning up all the grease - yeah that would be a messy job! Good advice......thanks! Both correct. I saw that white crap when I pulled out...
Not sure if my grease gun can screw into the caliper like that.......but we'll see what happens......thanks!
This makes the most sense and is what I will try tomorrow. The hydraulic pressure will be more than any air compressor - so it this doesn't do it...
