dave88sw Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 Hi, I've recently fitted a new servo and master cylinder to my series 3 swb (dual line brakes). Prior to changing them it had very good pedal feel at the top of it's travel (full braking effort about an inch down) but it was weeping fluid from the join between the cylinder and servo. I've put a new allmakes servo and lucas trw cylinder on and bled with a pressure bleeder, running clean fluid through for a good 30 seconds per wheel with definitely no bubbles. I have very positive feeling brakes, no sponginess and the pedal doesn't sink if i hold my foot on the pedal, however, the "bite point" on the brakes is about halfway through pedal travel, 2-3 inches down. This doesn't seem right to me, the first half of the pedal travel offers zero resistance, is there anywhere i can adjust? I noticed the servo push rod has a threaded end but i'm not sure if that's factory set or whether i should play with it? Thanks in advance Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
