Default Re: '40 Brake Bleeding

Make sure the master cylinder pushrod is retracting completely. There should be approx. 1/4" pedal free movement before the pushrod contacts the master cylinder piston. If this is too tight the piston can't retract fully and you'll have a problem getting all the air out of the system. Also, if driven like this the brakes will drag when they heat up.
Good luck!
