Subject:      Odd Brake Bleeding issue in 90 Westy

We've changed the brake lines, and it has a newer master cly, changed in 2012.

The odd issue is that we have pressure on the pedal and pump 3 times, open the bleeder and fluid with comes out as pedal goes to the floor. Like it should.

However, the pedal is totally soft and will not have pressure until we let it set for 10 minutes or so. WE can repeat the process over and over again, with no improvement.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Jack R... working on our friend 90 Westy.
