When bleeding your brake system (Front Disc, Rear Drum, Power brakes). Does the fluid in both resorviors of the master, decrease as you bleed the brake lines? OR Does one resorvior decrease while bleeding the fronts and the other resorvior decrease while bleeding the rears?
I might have complicated my question in a previous post. Thanks Bob :thumbsup:
Typically you should only loose fluid in the system that you are bleeding. The other may rise and fall as you cycle the pedal, and if that system has not been bled yet, you may send some into the lines. But they should be fully independent of each other.

That would be correct.....front reservoir drops when bleeding the front, rear reservoir drops when bleeding the rears.

Thanks Ron, that's what I thought. I'm confused :confused: Only one of the resorviors is depleting fluid when I bleed both my front anad rear brakes. The other resorvior fluid level remains the same. This baffles me:clonk::clonk: I previously posted same question with pictures of what I got. I'm pretty sure I plumbed everything right. All my brakes are working. But I still have questions and concerns that something is obviously wrong.
