Did you make sure your fluid reservoir is full?

Sounds like you still have air in the system. The calipars could be in need of a rebuild. They might be semi frozen. I'll call you about your old brakes.

Did you bleed it at the main resevior? We forgot when we did my brakes and it definetly sounds like you have air still in your lines

cool, thanks guys. i was starting to think it was a piston seal or something.
how do you bleed the main resevoir(master cylinder?)?

TopNotch- you still want those?
