That's the problem. It will ONLY bleed if the master cylinder is ALL THE WAY out. 1/16" depressed blocked the port on mine. > Otherwise, any other ideas for getting it bled? I will never fill with fluid if that port is covered. Shorten the rod, either by adjusting the eccentric bolt or by grinding off the end of the rod. I think it was TRW brand that I got that I had to grind off the rod. It came with both a short and a long - and neither was right! _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
