2G No brakes.. Omg..

[DsmDanielson]

I read article after article and tried everything and I can't get brake pressure. I just changed my brake pads and rotors. I even painted my calipers to make it all look nice. Reinstalled everything. Bled everything I don't know how many times. Booster works, changed master cylinder (needed to be changed anyway) no leaking brake fluid anywhere. STILL NO BRAKES?!? I don't have abs and I've been bleeding with the car on and off to no avail. I'm officially stumped.. and my head hurts. I've been at this this for 4 days now. Please help me​

Did you bleed the master properly? How does the peddle feel, soft-hard? Was the old master leaking at all? Could have leaked into the booster. My gvr4 did that and had horrible brakes.

Are you sure you don't have any leaks?

I've never done a Mitsubishi master cylinder before but I'm sure all of them have the same concept and if it wasn't bench bled right then your brakes will suck!

 

[DsmDanielson]

Bench bled it until there was no more bubbles. Define "no leaks" I'm not losing any brake fluid if that's what your asking?

How dose the petal feel

 

[DsmDanielson]

No pressure at all. Straight to floor. I can't even stop. If I pump it it gets slightly stiffer but if I stop it goes right back to no pressure

 

[gst-turbo]

when you keep pumping are you not loosing any fluid?

 

[DsmDanielson]

Nothing that i can notice

This happened to me when I swapped the front brakes to rebuilt 2 piston calipers. Bled them for days and nothing. What worked for me is unmounting the calipers from the rotor and slowly press the brakes to ensure the caliper is pressing the pads. Just a thought.

You cannot bench bleed our masters as we have open systems! That means that when you press it it closes but as soon as you release it the system now opens and fluid can leak out!

What you do is take the 2 lines going to the prop valve from the master and loop them back into the res bottle and press the brake till you circle fluid around and no air is in the master then you need to lock the brake pedal down!!! So you need another person so keep it pressed down while you reconnect the lines back to the prop valve once that's done you can release the brake pedal and bleed like normal!

Resolved: I checked the calipers after looking at what boostdawd said and realized I put my calipers upside down, so bleeding would've been impossible. I feel silly cause I was in a rush but now brakes work. Thanks!!
