Post Bleeding the front brakes...

69 Chassis Service Manual states this regarding bleeding front disc brakes:

"The spring loaded end of the pressure metering valve must be depressed while bleeding. This can be done by depressing and holding the plunger in the end of the valve either by hand, or by clamping.

This is all on page 5-29....there is additional information on pages 5-3 thru 5-5

If the plunger won't move, it may be stuck due to age/corrosion...I would check it and service as needed.

I double checked the 70 manual as well...same instructions.

Good luck.

**you just reminded me I have to look at the front brakes on the 70 4 spd...I had a collapsed hose and changed both of them...pedal is still a little soft...
