Group,
I am looking for ideas on brake bleeding. First push is now 1/2 pedal and full pedal on second pump. ALL parts are new. Master, brake lines, brake cylinders, brake shoes. rebuilt calipers (Type B) with new pads. I have pulled a quart through the system so far. I do not seem to get bubbles from the front disks. But , the rear drivers seems to have bubbles.
I have checked for leaks, none found. Tightened all the joints more than once. I am worried about more tightening of the wheel cylinders since they are aluminum. A friend who is actually a mechanic says to use the brakes till they warm up and then re-bleed. He does not think I have air coming in if I don't have leaks.
Any ideas for me?
