RE: Master cylinder grief
You need to use a pressure bleeder to get it right. Not too hard to do,
check Dan's archives.

Patrick and other listers:
Finally found a used MC to try on my 89 200. After
installing, I was
under the back end bleeding the rear brakes, with my wife
pushing the
pedal, I hear this fluid running on the floor. My HYDRAULIC
reservoir
overflows all over. I start the car, level goes down, shut
engine off
,resume bleeding process and level goes back up. Is this
normal? Am I
discharging the bomb through the booster with all these pedal to
the
floor actions?
It was getting late and the mosquitos were hungry so I quit
for the
night and didn't finish bleeding tho I finally had some pedal.
Any
ideas on this weird occurence?
