Strange Brake Problem
Ok heres my latest little dilemma. Every once n a while the brake pedal on my '82 240 will not get pressure where it normally does. What I mean is that it stops just most of the time but occasionally the pedal will go way farther down than normal before it starts to stop the car. My first thought was a leak somewhere but there isn't one. So I'm pretty sure the master cylinder is slipping. Is this my problem? Anyone have any other ideas as to what it might be?

RE: Strange Brake Problem
I assume your brake fluid level is ok, correct? Check your calipers, see if one is detorating or anything like that. If your caliper isn't pushing out on the pad, which pushed on the on the rotor, then you will have to push a little harder to get the car to brake. Take a look.

just FYI, if you dont know the correct bleeding sequence here is a way to cheat that has always worked without fail, act as if you where to do it like normal start with the right rear and end up at the left front. bleed the screws as Inner, Outter, upper per caliper
