I've removed the entire brake ***embly from the left front wheel. When I removed the rubber hose from the cylinder not a drop of fluid came out. The master is full and I removed the cap. Nothing is flowing through the line. So apparently the problem is upstream from the cylinder yes? Hoses are not bent or crimped in any way. The rubber on the hose is still intact and flexible. Is there any sort of snake technique to send up the line to clear it? And shouldn't the fluid flow out freely after the hose is disconnected from the cylinder? Now I'm thinking it's the master connection somehow but the rear are perfect! WTF!!!!!!
Disconnect the hard line from the hose and see what you get . Lightly push down the brake pedal to check for flow.
Old hoses can actually swell on the inside while the outside still seems fine and flexable. Try removing the hose to see if you're getting anything out of the line itself. I'd be willing to bet that's where your problem is.
your hoses are swelled shut. replace them, and the one at the rear axle while you're at it. THESE pieces of rubber will KILL you if THEY fail, unlike the spring bushings.
Thanks guys. But I did seperate the rubber hose from the metal line and STILL there was no fluid coming out. It HAS to be at the cylinder right?? The 3 line connector into the master??? But how on earth could BOTH lines be stuck? Doesn't make sense! I snaked a foot or so of weed wacker line up the rubber but apparently there's a pressure ****** where it connects to the hard line. I can disconnect one line and try to snake some wire through it to see what happens but again......fluid is coming out of the master into the 3 line nut connected to the master. Fluid is getting to the rear properly. Only the 2 front lines are a problem????? I'm gonna push some heavy wt fishing line through these pipes and see what happens. What could this be???????????????
The rubber hoses are stuck! Jammed with some **** cause I couldn't get a heavy fishing line to go through. Just ordered 2 new rubber hoses and 2 new cylinders. I think this should take care of the situation.
