[QUOTE="SRAD97750, post: 168151, member: 425"] Air in the line. It compresses when you try to pump fluid, and when you relax the fluid pressure, the air expands, which counteracts the piston's movement. The answer? More bleeding. Bleed it until the fluid is new, and then some. Sometimes it can take quite a few bleeding sessions. I like to tap the master cylinder when letting off the lever repeatedly. This will release the tiny bubbles, which is also bleeding your system. -BIG DAN:thumb: EDIT: Do not allow the master cylinder to go empty while bleeding... if it sucks ANY air in from the top, you might as well start over completely.
