I got a bit of time today but it is HOT in the garage.
I worked on the clutch and brakes today. Topped off and bled the clutch line and started working on the brakes. I started bleeding the rear brakes with the EZ bleeder and ran into some problems. The driver side front line was not tight to the flex line so that leaked a bunch and then I found that the same line going into the reserve was also weeping. Of course this is the line that attaches to the bottom of the reserve and is a royal pain to get at. I tighten the line under the car, remove the fluid from the reserve, loosened and retightened the hard line and tested. All seemed good. So I started bleeding again and it is leaking again there. Very lightly but right on the paint of the engine compartment.
So after mucking around with that for 4 hours, I'm done for the day.
We will see what tomorrow brings.
