Brake problems?

[Arnold Greene]

Art, forgive me for asking a dumb question, but are your bleeders all on the top side of the calipers? I had a friend with similar issues on a Ford, and the calipers were installed on the wrong sides. Once he changed them, the pedal was firm on the first pump.

Thanks Arnold. I'll check that first thing tomorrow. I think they are on right but anything is possible.

There's your problem Art...you should have two on the right and two on the left.

Thanks to all for your help. With the car on the ground they worked fine. Stalled to over 3500 without my left leg shaking, and driving around the pits it feels like a normal manual brake car.
