Pressure Bleed part2




Now for the problem & the questions... I took the vette for a test drive, I noticed when I started the engine that the peddle was just a little bit more spongy that when the car was turned off, & I noticed the engine rpm change when I hit the brake, I fugured this was due to the booster...I was able to to do some speed test stops & noticed that the peddle got increasingly harder as I drove around for about 30 minutes & the backs began to lock up again...I began to notice the back left brake begin to sqeal but it was not a solid sound, it was a pulsating squeal...shortly thereafter, the brakes got tighter & I had to park & sit for 45 minutes to let everything cool back down...drove it home & the brake peddle was almost non existant. I pulled the left rear & found that a former owner had drilled the rivets but had not completey filed them down smooth so I am suspecting that with the new rotors that I installed, that do not have the rivet holes that this was producing the effect of rotor runout ? Would this be a correct assumtion? I decided to 2 man bleed the system...this was no good, I got some fluid but not enough to make it past the top of the curve in my hose in the back, but verry little air bubbles, the front left I got a lot of air but was there for 30 minutes & still could not get fluid flow...pressure bled the system & now ready for next test drive. Anyone have ideas on why I could not 2 man bleed the system but can pressure bleed it?
