Long brake pedal update

Thanks chaps, i held the bias valve open blead the system again and bingo!!! problem solved
cheers.

 

was this n a mk2 8v as i seem to be havin g a similar problem, which way do you move the valve of keep it open?

 

Quite simple really, just make sure the bottom of the pivot is back as far as it will go towards the rear beam. Let me know how you get on.

 

when you say the bottom of the pivot do you mean where the spring attaches to, or the other end[?]

 

The spring is attached to the top, so it's the other end i'm reffering to.
Hope this makes it a bit clearer
