As far as I know it's the stock disc/drum valve but yeah, it's been fine for the last couple years...just a damn pinched line caused all of this. I've always hated bleeding brakes but in all my years of working on cars, never had a issue like this. Will try again in the morning to get this...
Disc/Disc setup. It has a narrowed fab 9" in the back with strange calipers. Brakes were fine till the break in the line. Never had this problem with it before.
Man this sucks. We've bled almost a quart of fluid out of the lines already but I do agree that it's a hydraulic issue. I'm gonna try all of your suggestions though. Will try the prop valve if bleeding all the lines/bleeders doesn't work. This is the third master cylinder so I'm assuming that...
One of the new steel braided front lines that replaced the original rubber flex lines. I've pumped the hell out of them and looked underneath and see no dripping. Pressure's going somewhere but I can't find it. Would a bad distribution block cause this?
No, we used the stock calipers in the front and the bleeders are on the top still. Back has strange calipers with bleeders on the top and bottom and I've bled both.
I know this is B-Body forum and I work on them also but this question is for a 73 Challenger I'm working on. Brakes were fine on it till a line was accidentally pinched while installing a tubular front end and it lost the fluid, I replaced the line and bled the brakes but can't get a pedal...
I was messing with it today and will try your latest suggestions tomorrow but I did find that the lights are not getting full 12v when the switch is off cause they're pretty dim when off but normal brightness when they're switched on. And I found that it's the thick black wire that comes off the...
Sorry for the delay, yes front and rear lights stay on even with the key off. Have to disconnect the battery. Original harness. Brake lights are fine, just the running/tail lights stay on all the time. Just started doing this all of a sudden that's why I figured it was the switch. Thanks for the...
I'm working on a 70 Charger with a problem I've never dealt with before. The driving/tail lights stay on all the time? Headlights turn on/off like they should but the others don't? Tried a new switch but it's doing the same thing? Any ideas?
Duh, didn't even think of that, you're correct in the other car uses the mag pickup with the violet/green trigger wires. I'll try the other "good" box and see what happens. Thanks!
My MSD box all of a sudden no longer produces a spark? Worked fine up till yesterday. I tried jumping the white/trigger wire but still nothing? Swapped the box into another car and it fired up so it's not the box. Checked the wiring and it's getting 12v to the box. I have it wired directly to...
Have another post about me having slow cranking issues on a 540" BB being the starter but that wasn't the issue. I installed a MSD Dyna Force starter and the same thing happened. I then loosened all the bellhousing bolts and it cranked better so it's something binding between the motor/tranny...
Well, I made a not too uncommon mistake and cracked the starter nose (oops) putting it back in so it looks like another starter is coming anyway. Found a almost brand new MSD Dyna Force starter on CL that I'm gonna probably pick up tomorrow so I guess I'll know for sure if it was the starter. Is...
`I'm having a slow cranking problem on a fresh 540" big block motor I'm working on. It's 12.5:1 compression and has a Proform hi-torque mini starter on it but when I try to start it it cranks very slow then stops all together? It was running on a test stand so the motor itself isn't the problem...
