Q: Pedals not getting harder and barley any pressure in the lines
I changed both the front calipers on my 95 ram 1500 2wd, MY BRAKE pedal wasnt getting any harder during the bleeding process like the pressure wasn't building up and the pedal would always go straight to the floor but no air was coming out of the bleeders and then I noticed a strange suction noise coming from the master cylinder, so wouldnt that mean the internal seals or warn out?
