slow brake fluid leak, but pedal is solid?


Recommended Posts

Posted

2000 gmc sierra 1500 4x4 5.3, recently replaced master cylinder ( leaking fluid bad between booster and mc )

 

since replacing master i have a solid pedal, but im slowly losing fluid, not sure where its going but the inner fender under the master is wet but that could easily be from when i changed it.. lines were replaced a few months prior and all appear dry everywhere.. what confuses me is that im going through like a pint a week of fluid, but still have a solid brake pedal,

 

any ideas of where to start?

 

thanks, mike

Where it's wet. Check at all your wheels too. Losing that much fluid you should be able to find the location.

today i cut the line at the left front flex, re flared with a new fitting, tightened everything up, bled the lines. not going through any fluid now :) pedal isnt as hard as i'd like but ill give that a little time and re bleed if necessary, thanks for the replies!
