Very Frustrated
Just bought this 87 GN with PM.When i first got it wouldn't stop worth a darn. would stop but not enough for an emergency stop. So i rebuilt the PM with the Kirban Kit and a new Accumulator and new brass Proportioning valve.
Bench bled, Gravity bled, then 2 person beed. Also adjusted rear drums. i did not push the pin in on the proportioning valve while bleeding.
Stops a little better but pedal does nothing until half way then works but will hit the floor. I am thinking 80% braking. Seems to pass all the tests in the Powermaster book i got from Kirban.
getting frustrated, just like everyone else. More bleeding? thinking about buying a reverse bleeder.
I do have to push a little hard to get it to the floor, but i am thinking it should never hit the floor. and stop better
