My build is below and I will tell you its not my first build but the most frustrating. I have a Wilwood manual MC and it was bench bled before being attached. I have zero leaks which took a while. I used the mity vac to bleed the calibers but I was getting tiny air bubbles which I thought was from the connection with the hose. I went through a lot of brake fluid but still had bubbles but not the typical air in the system. I put the speed bleeders back on and bled them again. The pedal is still soft. To add salt in my wound I started the car which is on jacks and put it into second gear and stepped on the brake pedal only to watch it continue to spin. I am truly at a loss. This is the first time I have used a Manual Wilwood setup and help out there will be much appreciated. Thanks
yes I had the plugs in after bench bleeding the MC and when I hooked it up to the pedal I could barely move the pedal. I noticed when I was bleeding it the reservoir went down a lot faster in the front than the rear. Volume was low coming out the rears. As I was pulling the brake fluid with the Mity vac they were the same.
maybe try bleeding it backwards. put a hose on the bleeder into fresh fluid, and install your mighty vac at the lines at the master cylinder. ive also had good luck with making a master cylinder cap, and adding a fitting to the top so i can lightly pressurize the master cylinder 15-20 psi to help push fluid threw. you can also try pluging the master cylinder ports one at a time to see if its a problem with the front, or rear.
I was thinking of plugging the MC one at a time and heard a lot about the phoenix V-12 bleeder. Hate to spend $200 or the price of the MC. Maybe chuck Wilwood and go elsewhere.
