Temp dependent master cylinder issue. Try flushing first, pump brakes
with engine running to bleed. Sludge won't clean out from pressure
bleeding alone. I actually flushed straight brake clean once,
overkill.... When I was switching to silicon brake fluid.

Hey, anyone have a jig for drilling out a broken exhaust stud? I
REALLY don't Want to pull the head.....

Pretty please? I'm desperate in Hawaii.
