I've got these spongy brakes, no leaks anywhere that I see, decent braking power, but when I'm at a stop I can pump and pump and pump away at the brakes and they still dont get much stiffer after the pumping... I noticed that when I'm trompin' on the gas and playin' around, the brakes are stiffer for some reason... yet normal driving gives me enough power to stop safely... but at a stop goes back to being able to floor the brake pedal... I've bled the brakes before... didn't have much of an effect... anyone had this same problem?

coincidence maybe?

 

[blakdeth77]

yeah...

yeah I hear ya Lucke... so... um but nobody has been able to give up a solid answer. lol. I *have* bled my brakes... and I still dont know what's wrong... I bled them in the right order I think... rear pass. then rear driver then front pass. then front driver... anyone??? is that the right order? I believe I read that in my chilton's manual but haven't verified that with any other source. Can anyone back up Chilton's accuracy???

MY BAD!!!!!!!!!!!

Um... haha I feel like an idiot now... hahahahahaha... I looked up the brake bleeding order again and it's Rear Pass. then Front Driv. then Rear Driv. then Front Pass. corners... hahahahaha well I'm off to my 'rents to use their heated garage... it may be a nice day here but I think I'll still use the heated garage. haha. L8erz yAll... hope this helps somebody!

actually, the chilton manual says to bleed in this order:

left front, right rear, right front, left rear...

just noticed that

what do your lines look like? it might be time to get stainless steel ones.

Why do you have an AEM intake but opt to use the crankcase filter. Plug the crankcase into the intake and be efficient.

 

[Fstyles]

there may be some bubbles in your brake lines, so the fluid has to fill the bulge then continue the braking mechanism, making it so you would have to floor the brakes.

 

[blakdeth77]

hm but shouldn't any bubbles get taken care of from bleeding? I think my brake lines are alright too... didn't notice any cracking or anything from drying up on the outside.
