konig209 Posted April 9, 2015 Report Share Posted April 9, 2015 So i've been into datsuns for a few years now and finally bought a car i been after for about 3 years. 71 corolla 2 door wagon. With a 13b streetport swap with racing beat header, intake, and holley 460 tuned by racingbeat. I picked it up yesterday and have already cleaned it out and got it started. Its been sitting ten years. Hopefully should be drive able by next monday. :) Well here she is. I like to post many pics. Hopefully you guys don't mind. Just throwing this out there. These are my 2 521's ive had for a while. can't wait to get this rolla back on the road. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

konig209 Posted April 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2015 (edited) Need help bleeding the brakes. With the line disconnected the reservoir half way no fluid comes out. If i pour fluid down where the line goes into it sucks it into the reservoir. The brake master is new btw Edited April 14, 2015 by konig209 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

konig209 Posted April 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2015 False alarm. Still can't figure it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleRedSpirit Posted April 15, 2015 Report Share Posted April 15, 2015 I don't really understand from what you've said, but after any mc swap you need to bleed the mc as well as the brakes at all 4 corners. You just crack a flare nut on each line, and use it like a bleeder nipple, just let the air out with pedal pressure and close the nut. I like to give it a few pumps along the way once you get a pedal just to build some pressure and force any remaining bubbles to the extremes, then bleed again. Put a rag around the mc to absorb any fluid and wash the area after or your paint will go away with the air bubbles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now i just need to figure out why the brake master wont push fluid into the lines. Has anyone ever needed to use this? http://www.autopartsway.com/partlist.cfm?toyota/1971/corolla/base/1.2l-l4/allb/tools-and-equipment/brake-system-service/brake-master-cylinder-bleeding-tool/pagenum1/tabs/bdyt/engd3kc/bdydrs/fueltgas Can you take a pic of your proportioning valve and mark which goes to brake master and which goes to rear wheels Please.

konig209 Posted April 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2015 Never mind. Spent all afternoon blowing out the brakes. Tons of crap came out and the rear wheel cylinders are locked up and plugged up. Just purchased 2 new ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
