Default Re: need help diagnosing brake issue

I had trouble with Strange masters on my 3400lb Mustang. They are 1.125 bore and that is a bit big for manual brakes. I have a pair of step bore masters now. An early Monza with an .875 bore is in it now and I have one from a 85' S 10 that is .945 bore. Both give me 300psi with a light foot and 1000 with effort. I'm 74. Step bore or quick takeup masters are hard to bleed. It is important to not rush this step with any master. Wait 30 seconds between presses to be sure the cylinders are recharged, I use a stopwatch.
