I Had a brake leak on my 1995 ranger. So I bit the bullet and replaced all the lines and hoses. I did a full complete brake job on the truck front and back. New drums, rotors, wheel cylinders, pads, calipers and master cylinder. I bench bled the master cylinder before installing.
I could not get the brakes to bleed up. I get pedal when pumped, but the pedal goes away shortly after sitting. I am not losing fluid.
I took my digital vernieers and mic'ed the distance inside my master cylinder and adjusted the rod to the proper length. I can see both cylinders working when the pedal is pumped.
Yet I still fail to develop a stable brake pedal.
Also note that I have mighty vaccumed each brake line so I am sure that it is not a air in the line problem.
Also I checked the power booster after turning the truck off and letting it sit and removed the line and got a swoosh vaccum release.
Model info:
1995 Ranger 2.3l motor without speed control.
Any suggestions???
Thanks
Rick
