Sorry for the long post….
I’m hitting a road block and need a little guidance from the collective wisdom.
81 CX500C
I installed a new SS front brake line due to the old line having no fluid passage thru it.
With the MC full of fluid, I see a minute amount of fluid movement and feel some pressure on my finger at the MC port. (Where the banjo threads into) Using a syringe I added fluid to the brake line until I got fluid flow from the caliper bleeder. At that point I connected the line at the MC and squeezed the brake lever. Very light lever and very minimal fluid movement. I either have a MC problem, or just a ridiculous amount of trapped air. I’m frustrated and not sure what to check. I have the brake lever zip-ty the lever closed and trying to let it gravity bleed.
