Hi all... I thought I would tap the knowledge of all who took the
time to read this post.
I just installed new brake shoes in the front of my 1971 standard
bug. When I tested the brake pedal after I was done, the pedal went
all the way to the floor! This surprises me because I didnt have to
undo any brake lines, the only thing I can think of might have to do
with me compressing the left wheel cylinder with a clamp to push
back the pistons so I could install the shoes. I undid the reservoir
cap to allow the brake fluid back into it with out building up
pressure and I made sure that it was full before I did anything.
Any thoughts, advice, and/or constructive critizism would be greatly
appreciated.
Thanks,
Bruce
