Default wtb master cylinder braided line

i just had my tranny rebuilt ,put a new slave ,and master put in .the shop cant seem to bleed it they said it might be a defective master so i took them another one today . they will try it again tomorrow and if it doesent work then they said it might be the braided line . i bought one from a member here but i dont know if it works properly, so if it cant be bled tomorrow i will need another one

SO IF SOMEONE HAS A BRAIDED LINE CAN YOU PM ME ON HOW MUCH SHIPPED THAT WOULD BE GREAT THANKS

those lines are pretty resilient, i doubt it's bad..if they're tryin to bleed the master in the car they are wasting their time, remove the master and bench bleed it to get all the air out, the angle the master is at in the car will not let all the air out...unless they try power bleeding it.

Default clogged

seeing how brake fluid doesnt NORMALLY have a tendancy to coagulate and solidify, i would doubt it is clogged / simply blow air through it to confirm.
-i would completely agree with the other members who posted a suggestion of power-bleeding, or yes, a mighty vac would also work
-im not one for talking sh-t, but is there a chance that the shop is just plain clueless ???


-good luck
