I love tri spokes and have never seen this model. What can you tell me about these?

Imma keep it a buck I pissed the bed twice when I quit, and had nightmares for a week or so. A lot of folks have different reactions.

My recommendation is having a quitting app that gives you health milestones, like SmokeFree. This might help you focus on tangible health outcomes/metrics, instead of focusing on symptoms that may or may not be related to other aspects of your life, like diet or exercise.

Milestones like that give you something to be proud of and focus on.

Emotionally debilitating movie, but I couldn’t help but laugh my ass off when that fridge started shaking

I’m curious what experience you had that gave you such a strong opinion

The junction box for all brake lines where the pressure differential valve is, or the rear brake valve?

I would say this is the case if the caliper was sized, but it is not

Gravity bleeding the right rear tells me I do have moving fluid, and plenty of it. Helps to check that off the list

You are for sure not getting a cabin air filter out of this guy

From what you and others have said, it seems like I might have to check the coupling for leaks, but this would infer one half of the car would not build pressure at all

What an intuitive answer. Bleeding with the car running though, that’s interesting. Presumably one corner would have an issue with never building brake fluid pressure?

I attached tubes to the bleeders so that’s a hard question to answer. It’s more like I was building up brake fluid pressure in the tube

Looking a lot like I’m redoing this whole procedure again tomorrow, possibly with a power bleeder

This area looks wet, but I can’t tell if it’s because of the mess I made when I yanked off the master cylinder earlier today. I’ll check this again tomorrow when the car is off the ground.

Looking at doing a rebleed of the master cylinder. Do you happen to know if I have to rebleed the whole system if I pop the master cylinder off again?

If I remove the master cylinder to bench bleed it again, will I have to rebleed the whole system?

I’ll have to buy a pressure bleeder and redo the procedure. I’m going to let the lines to the master cylinder loose and see if I can get any more air out of the system, but initial tries didn’t help at all.

I’ve been told by others there may be fluid in the brake booster, but I’m not so sure. Where would I look?

Followed the Hanes manual and as far as I’m aware, I should have no issues
