I was having trouble with my rear disc brakes. No matter what I did they would not grab. I bled them 5 times and replaced the hoses. I ordered but did not install a new power assisted master to replace my manual master. Ordered a Longacre brake pressure gauge. Finally figured out that I was turning my Wilwood proportioning valve the wrong direction and I had essentially turned them off. DOH! The direction that you should turn it is clearly shown on the knob but my lousy eyesight and bifocals made it difficult for me to see. Luckily I can use the new master on my current project and I learned a bunch in the process. Hard learned lessons are usually the best ones in my experience.
