Hey guys,

I've been trying to bleed my rear brake, but no fluid is getting past the master cylinder. I took off the brake line and it is completely dry and the end of the master cylinder where the brake line attaches to is dry as well. Seems like something inside the master cylinder is broken. I did have the master cylinder powdercoated over the winter....could the heat from the PC damaged something inside? Can I rebuild the master cylinder or do I have to buy a new one?

Thanks,

Ed

there are seals and stuff inside of it, under the oven temps they most likely cracked and are now not pumping any fluid through.

you can probably rebuild it but a new one is around $50 or so if i remember correctly
