'90 automatic SC. Master cylinder pump quit. Purchased a good working pump. Pulled the master cylinder, switched the motor and put it back in. Now the motor runs and runs and runs, but there's nothing at the rear bleeders - no air and no brake fluid - and I had them both open at the same time. (Did the conventional bleeding on the front calipers - got plenty of air out.)
Finally disconnected the rear brake line from the master cylinder. Turned the key on. The MC motor runs fine, but nothing is coming out of the master cylinder to that line.
Started the car and the front brakes grab fine. Doesn't have the rock hard pedal as when the accumulator goes bad. But I'm not going to drive it like that.
The world's largest air bubble in the master cylinder? Master cylinder is shot?
Anyone else have this happen?
