Subject:      Brake problem
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"

Hi All,



Can anyone provide some assistance on this brake problem?



My pedal fades very very slowly.  So I change the master cylinder and I've
bled the system from the furthest brake forward no change.  I spoke with a
local car mechanic and he said that the cups in the cylinder have reverses
themselves because I did not bench bleed the new master cylinder.  He
couldn't explain why there was no change from the original master cylinder.
I checked for leaks: none.



TIA

Jere
