Asked by jhonc Nov 24, 2012 at 10:17 AM about the Chrysler Le Baron

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Replaced the Master cylinder, brake booster, both front rubber brake hoses and pass side front caliper. Bench bled the new master b4 installing. Tried to bleed the system starting with pass rear-dr rear-pass- front pass-dr front. Not much fluid came out, none out of dr front.  Pedal goes to floor. Suspect the proportioning valve. Any ideas??

Did air come out when you bled them on the car? keep up process, bleeding and adding fluid until fluid comes out. May take many many repetitions you can't do it alone you need a brake petal pumper. Pump petal 10, 20X's or whatever it takes to get even a little bit of back pressure, off the floorboard
