howdy all,
seems every couple of yrs,have hydrolic issues, now learn that previous owner of my 100-6 installed an after mkt fluid tank linked to the masters via fuel line.
recently went through [rebuilt] all the cylinders [9] replaced transit hoses with fluid compatible hose [german $$$$]
bled the systems as stated in manual [bleeders open hose submerged etc]after adjusting each wheel still have very low pedal, although can pump it up. drove and bedded new shoes, readjusted,still left with low pedal.
in years past i've bled system [2 man op] with bleeders closed until max pedal achieved then opened valves,any reason not to go the latter route????
with respect 59er
