Subject: Re: c6 brake swap - any bleeding tricks? by patgizz on 2010/7/4 4:28:00 original master worked fine when i took the calipers off thursday. calipers were rebuilt and dry, i've never heard of bench bleeding calipers and never had issue with bleeding anything in the past including completely dry brand new systems. my car looks like it can stop on a dime sitting in the driveway, but i didnt do it for looks. we're going to try to re-bleed tomorrow after letting it sit to hopefully get any air to rise to the top of the calipers. got another fresh quart of fluid, i ran out. the c6 z51 brakes are freaking huge. if i can get the air out of the system i think i'll be able to put passengers through the windshield if they are annoying. i've been scarce around here, my car was boned up most of last year, i only drove it once. the stupidram put the tv cable into a bind - crappy design - so i sold off my dream intake after it turned into nightmare. then the harness made some sparks and fried the pcm. at least my new setup pulls hard well beyond the original TPI intake, but it took a while to get it right after getting some supposedly good parts that ended up tampered with prior to acquisition. |
