Title: soft brakes
Post by: Shimy87 on July 30 2013, 12:52:45 PM

I have installed vacuum brakes a year ago, they have always seemed soft or spongy to me. Is there a sequence for bleeding i.e. front left, front right, back right ,back left, or dosent it make any difference. Was going to bleed them again to see if it helps at all.
Thanks!!

right rear, left rear, right front, left front...

always do the longest lines first.  Vacuum brakes often feel a bit more spongy than the PM in my experience
