Default Re: Brake Booster Question

All very good suggestions. I'm going to run thru everyone this weekend. I use a vacuum bleeder so I can do it myself no pump 5 times then hold anymore. The more I think about it the more I think the M/C rod is not pushing enough fluid down to the wheel cyls.

The idea of adjusting as high as possible then slipping the drums on was to confirm the brakes were actually wound up and something goofy wasn't happening like the adjusters being reversed causing an unwind when adjusting by hand or by the auto adjust when in use?.
If they're wound up to where you can just get the drums on they'd be high enough to give a real pedal and discount the actual adjustment as the problem..
