[Shotimes] Re: Bleeding the brakes

[Mike]

You can and should rent or buy a honer for the rear brake cylinders.  Looks
like little metal balls on wires, goes into your drill.  Caution:  less is
more when it comes to this.  You can also get some wet or dry 400 and manually
clean out the inside of the cylinders; they are probably rusty and will cause
new seals to blow out soon.

I've just finished putting new rotors and pads on the rear of my 91.  The left
side caliper piston was completely pushed out, so I replaced the seal and put
it back in.  I've got both sides all back together and am trying to bleed the
brakes, but it is not working.  I've tried a few different methods, but I
can't seem to get the brake fluid to come out.  (The rotors and pad were shot,
and the rear brakes weren't working at all.  The slider brackets on both sides
were either broken or rusted.  I replaced them too)  Any suggestions?  I've
been looking at the proportioning value, but the thing is so rusty and worn,
I'm afraid to touch it.  Any way of testing it?  Thanks!!!
