I got hold of Bill Perry. He had surgery mid April and now
his wife may need some, so he's distracted.
Suggests the biggest prob generally has been a wee air
bubble in the slave hose, so I will take it OFF the transmission
and elevate the slave ABOVE the master for a better bleed.
No question these slaves are difficult to completely purge.
If it is the highest point, I can just open the bleeder and
allow the air to escape - whoopee!
I have a new Mini slave and, tho the bleeder is on the
wrong side for normal bleeding, this technique allows
me to use a new unit.
Another prob could be the black fabric aeroquip line
that hangs 3 inches from the LCB. I can clip it outa
the way and maybe try to shield it. The prob is always
worse after I drive it awhile, so heat buildup's a factor.
