You might try pumping fluid from the slave cylinder up to the resivor. I've seen this fix your type of problems a few times. Get yourself an oil pump can, attach a hose to it and the bleeder. Then pump the fluid backwards through the system. You'll need a squeeze bulb to suck the fluid out of the resivor when it fills up.
Give that a try and let us know. It will only cost you $5 for a pump type oil can and just might solve your problem.
its called back bleeding,or reverse bleeding,but it shouldn't be nessecary...
I think if somebody properly bled the system,(assuming it was all asembled correctly) there shouldn't be a problem.
He is either listening to bad advice,or not bleeding it properly.
He was under the impression that if he cranked down on the lid for the master that that would seal things up.(Bad advice,or bad judgement).
If its back together properly,with no faulty componants,it just needs PROPER bleeding.
I think folks might be talking...but someones not really listening...
a bit rude too...
