Today was a great day. I drove my Spite for the first time after owning it for 5 years. I bought it in pieces missing many parts. Very exiting! I really appreciate all the great advice I've received from you all over the years. Thank you.
My current problem is the brakes. I upgraded to the split system. It leaked at the brake failure plug so I ordered a new one. The one I received was the wrong shape so I replaced it with a bolt temporarily. Could that be why it is so difficult to bleed? If the piston is designed to block off the side that has failed could it be sliding back and forth without the switch in it. And doesn't bleeding simulate a blown out cylinder?
Thanks,
Walter
