Sorry for noob questions, but what do you mean by "it floats back up through the master cylinder" ? Do you mean that the air finds its way through the master cylinder, up to the reservoir, and then to the atmosphere ?

@sharpcarco Год назад

That’s the I don’t know answer it just works at😂😂. Sorry, I seen this message early in the morning maybe my brains not working All right, my brain just clicked on. I can answer that . I don’t remember when I said that, but I do remember saying that because I didn’t have time to think about where the air goes I thought I explain this in the video but maybe I didn’t do a very good job when the lines are open and you push down on the brake pedal. It pushes the air out from the open lines then before the brake pedal is released, you close the lines the plunger inside the master cylinder, draws the fluid back up into the master cylinder there should not be air, but if there is air, it will travel back through the fluid because there’s no gap between the fluid in that air Hass to go somewhere but I don’t believe that there’s actually air in there any longer because it pushes fluid and the air through the tips of the open brake lines.

@thedbguy 10 месяцев назад

Dealing with a issue now. We started with a sudden drop in the pedal to the floor. I checked brake fluid and it was pretty good but I added more to top it off. Checked it a few days later and still in same spot, so figure no leaks. Given that we just had new front brake lines/calipers/rotors/pads put in like 4 or so months ago, knew those should be good. I assumed bad master cylinder. Replaced that today, but no bleed kit came with it and the one I bought at the store did not have the right size, so I winged it since our car was a bit sketchy to drive again while having this issue. I installed master cylinder, used finger pressure to work out initial flow of fluid from it. Then I put lines on, had gf put pedal down after I opened the lines, but I had her push it until it stopped moving then locked them down and released pedal. We did this a few times, sometimes doing both lines at once and sometimes doing 1 line at a time. We still have a pedal that goes all the way to the floor. I guess our next step is to bleed the calipers, but without a jack currently (mine took a shit), I crawled under the back to do the back drum rotors but did not seed a bleeder back there. Any thoughts?

@sharpcarco 10 месяцев назад

Not any that you haven’t already thought of you still want to check out the things that I talk about in my spongy brake video it will show you exactly what the problem is when you go through the steps However, you already know in the situation what you need to do you need a jack and you need to remove the wheels and you need to do it correctly . My assumption is one of your calipers or your brake line is bad I know that they say they replaced” them, but that doesn’t mean things don’t go bad, especially nowadays when they’re made made by Asians under the age of 12

Also could I bleed even faster if I used your method of unscrewing the nuts, depressing the pedal, tightening the nut then release the brakes? Also wanted to mention the car is a Benz e class it has abs… is that something that should be only dealt with at the professional shop?

@toastrecon Год назад

@@sharpcarco the one thing about DOT3, it’s hygroscopic. It absorbs water. It does have a limited capacity to do so, so if you add water to it, you’re out of luck, lol. Still, the fluid does get dirty and contaminated and starts to absorb water from the air, road, etc as the brake pistons move. That contamination can lead to seals breaking down sooner, I think. To each their own, though! If the brakes work, the brakes work.

If it’s a Master cylinder replace should not be able to pump up the brakes to make it harder….. if you don’t have any fluid leaking somewhere else regardless of if the motor is running or shut off better to test brakes when the motor is off because they’re not vacuum assisted at that point.

Pretty easy job you just remove the two bolts securing down the master cylinder and then there’s four bolts holding down the brake booster and it’s connected to the brake pedal.. I’m assuming since you’re asking and you probably don’t know much about this process but I can explain do you there are only two reasons you would ever need to change your brake booster that I can think of off the top of my head It makes a swishing noise when you push it Or with the vacuum hooked up correctly the pedal is very hard to push There are no reasons to change a brake booster other than that .

@aa--aa Год назад

@ddogmog 2 месяца назад

I know this method will work ok. I just think it's wrong maybe even irresponsible to skip the very important step of bleeding of all of the brake lines when replacing a master cylinder. 1st - You can't get %100 of the air out of all of the lines w/this method. In other words; the pedal can be better. 2nd -If the master cylinder is bad - chances are excellent that it's old and has dirty fluid in it just like the one in this video. (fact; it's dirty fluid that causes most brake/seal leak failures in the first place) So, never ever leave that old dirty fluid in brake lines after u change a master cylinder. Remember: the brake calipers/wheel cylinders use the same type of rubber seals that are in the master cylinder. And the very same dirty fluid is still flowing through the entire brake system. Just spend the extra $2.00 in brake fluid and do the job all the way. Don't take any chances w/ your brakes. Not just for the satisfaction of doing the job right - it will almost completely ensure that you won't have replace an expensive caliper/wheel cylinder later. Don't forget, it's the same dirt that just ruined the master cylinder and it's already in your calipers/wheel cylinders. And when u have to replace the caliper, ect, you're gonna have to bleed that line anyway. Last thing is: when the fluid gets into the brake booster like this one - the brake booster should be changed as well. The seals in the booster are not designed to resist the corrosive/chemicals of brake fluid. It will fail. Maybe not today - but it will fail. It's a lot easier to change it with master cylinder out of the way.

@guidosarducci3047 2 месяца назад

You're spot on.

@sharpcarco 2 месяца назад

Tell us you stopped watching the video and commented without watching the video …. So what you’re saying is when the brake pedal comes up it doesn’t suck fluid back into the master cylinder….. ? So explain to us How would air ever get inside the lines if when you were doing it the conventional method of bleeding the system Well, I don’t know all I can tell you is I’ve been doing it that way for decades. But to each their own. Do it the right way I don’t have an issue with that. I was just saying that it’s not necessary. I don’t expect everybody with a quarter of a brain to understand these things so it doesn’t bother me a bit. This is the way that I do it.

@ddogmog 2 месяца назад

@@sharpcarco Yeah man, I saw the entire video. If you read my entire comment - you'd know that I said that it'll work - Never said it won't work, just that you'll never get ALL of the air out and that the pedal is better if you bleed the entire system. I know for a fact that if I bled the lines after you were done with that K-Mart fix, I'd get more air out of the lines. Nearly half of my work these days is repairing cheap fixes from wannabe's like you. I'll take the work anytime - but brakes are serious component and should be done properly/correctly. I'm sure you've been doing it that way for many years and it might seem fine/ok, and last for while. But leaving all of that dirty fluid in the lines and in the calipers/wheel cylinders will cause another failure. Guaranteed it will fail somewhere else. Also, you never replaced the brake booster - all master mechanics (of which I'm one of for over 40 years) agree on all of these points. Brakes might be the most important safety feature on the vehicle. You are potentially putting peoples lives in danger over a few dollars of brake fluid and 15 minutes of extra work. ARE YOU REALLY THAT CHEAP AND LAZY, AND CARELESS? If that's your way; then so be it! If you want to post silly ridiculous videos; accept the constructive feedback and our great advise like a man. Don't be such a baby when you know I'm %100 right. You're cheap, lazy, and dangerous.

Exits out the lines. You are bleeding the air out of the master cylinder and when you have the Lions closed you were sucking the air from the lines

Not a dumb question.

This might be old... can you re-use the old reservoir for a new master cylinder? Thanks

@sharpcarco 2 месяца назад

Yes it’s made of plastic and we’ve all been told that plastic is forever..

@temle7489 2 месяца назад

@@sharpcarco Thank you, sir. Didn't realize that the one I ordered has no reservoir.

Are you installing a used MC?

@sharpcarco Год назад

I’ve done it both ways. I don’t remember what I was using in that video but it works each way doesn’t matter.

@fabio40 Год назад

@@sharpcarco It looked kinda dirty, so I thought it might be used. Any issues with used MC's?

@sharpcarco Год назад

No that wasn’t a problem with this particular vehicle. It was the ABS module itself in a later video I show you how to change it at this time. I thought it was a possibility that the master cylinder was bad, but I was incorrect. Still a great video, though, because I was able to demonstrate a process that I’ve used for a couple decades, to bleed it out different master cylinders. And yes, I still on this vehicle drive it daily with a used master cylinder

@justsumguy2u 6 месяцев назад

Well that's not gonna help me any, because I don't have an assistant to push the pedal or a vice to bench-bleed the new master

@sharpcarco 6 месяцев назад

Well, you may not have an assistant, so you ain’t gonna get any further than that but as far as bench bleeding goes using this procedure, you don’t have to do it on the bench .

I just couldn't sit through all the bullshit. Just tell me what I need to know about bleeding the master.

That’s good you can go watch somebody else’s video… it’s called TheClayWay, not the Ralph Way.. I always love it when big ass babies whine about free videos…

@markbensinger3560 2 года назад

I don’t think you could make this sound any more complicated than you did. Have you purchased a new master cylinder lately? Why in the bloody world would you not bench bleed it and avoid all this drama?

@sharpcarco 2 года назад

Even if you bench bled the master cylinder you would have to bleed the whole system…… that’s why did you pay attention to the video? That was the whole point…… why don’t you shut your pot licker and just go do whatever the hell it is that you do
