    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

quick question

You have an E and those are off an L. The calipers are the same but the Master cylinders are different but they will work. Why don't you rebuild the old one?
 
my old one needed the switch and a rebuild and i found one on ebay for mine accoarding to the guy. it was brand new so i bought it for the price of a rebuild and switch. When i got it it didnt seem right the wires were of a smaller guage but i didnt think anything of it. few months later i went to put it in and vacuum bled it, then hand bled it till there was no air and it pulls in all the way to the bar. lines are good and i got rid of my old one, and lost the guys email.
 
Remove the single line from the master cylinder going in to the Y and submerge the end in the master cylinder and pump the lever. You should see air bubbles. Do this till the bubbles stop. This is bleeding the master cylinder itself. Then reattach it to the Y and bleed the calipers. Try gravity bleeding first and then open bleeder valve, pull brake lever, close bleeder, release lever. If you don't get good flow try the Fleabay one. Hope this makes sense, I just got of a fifteen hour shift. Are you sure all your lines are sealed?

alright ill fdo that, it was a brand new one and i didnt bleed it so i'll cross my fingers. it stiffens up a little if i pump it, so i hope this will cure it. thankyou for the help.
