Heath,
Is the
piston in the master cylinder returning far enough to open the transfer
port and return line pressure to atmospheric..
As you
start to depress the master cylinder piston,. the transfer port is closed of and
pressure can be generated by moving the piston. As the piston is returned to
rest the transfer port must be exposed again to allow residual pressure to be
bled of and the line pressure return to atmospheric. The brakes will work if the
transfer is not being opened but will always drag.
If you
look in the reservoir (with only a little fluid in it) as the piston returns to
rest position you should see a small surge of fluid returning into the reservoir
if the transfer port is being opened at the end of stroke.
Keep
smiling
Cheers
