No bleeding hole.

Post by Weg » Sat Dec 24, 2022 11:39 am

On a lighter note, I was trying to bleed the front brakes but unable to get any fluid from one wheel cylinder.

On closere inspection, there was no hole in the side of the bleed screw.
Hey Ho. Soon fixed.

How many things did you blame and check before you found the problem? 🙃

Well, so as not to make a mess, I removed the calliper with pipe still attached and placed in an icecream tub.
Removed the bleed screw and pumped the brake pedal a couple of times. Air and fluid appeared.
It was then that I notice the missing hole.
