Hi guys, Well today I got my CX turbo off the blocks, and err, umm, <whispers very quietly> i went for a little spin up the road.
My god, I'd forgotten just how fast they are, ooh missus!!!!!
Mind you, it was a usefull exercise, as it showed up some things that need attention. The car had sat with no LHM reservoir in it for some time, and it was my mate who put it back in for me. The pump is primed ok, and the suspension rises and falls just like it should.
The steering feels bloody horrible, notchy, and doesn't always return to the centre.
The brakes are frighteningly in-effective!!!
So, I surmise that there is a huge air lock in the system somewhere.
What is the sequence for bleeding the system? Not just the brakes, but the Diravi too! I arleady did the rear brakes, cos i re-piped them, and there is a clean flow of LHM from the nipples.
