Sam, when you put the slave in - did you leave the bleed nipple "open"?

Bentley says to install it and then bleed. I have heard some just push it in there against the pressure? I was able to get my slave in, unbled. There was NO pressure on the pedal, it would not even come off the floor, when it did it was erratic. Whether it is enough to break the seal or fork I don't know.

I ended up taking the slave out again. Opened the bleeder valve and, while being squirted by brake fluid, installed it in the "open" position and then bled all the bubbles out. It was a PITA but the pedal worked much better. Just a thought…
