[Spridgets] M/C bleeding problem

[Kitterer Bob]

As of now I have not resolved the problem.  Primarily for now the car is in storage because I am on a two year adventure living in a RV and traveling.  When this is over I will return to this problem - - hopefully with a good game plan with the help of this list.
