Am in a bit of a pickle...
Have just replaced my rear caliper and have had a bit of difficulty bleeding it.
I have bought a brand new Brembo caliper so I am sure it's OK
however only one of the pistons comes out when I bleed it off the disc (as per Ducati workshop manual).
Having put it on the disc it does appear to work (in the garage with me rotating the disc by hand...) but the pedal is rock-hard.
Does this mean I have too much fluid in the reservoir and also, is there an airlock in the caliper that is stopping the other piston from coming out?
The one that isn't moving is the one on the bleed nipple side if that means anything to anyone.
Also, I think that when I replaced my rear brake pedal with one of Casoli's finest polished ones, I didn't locate the post (on the inside of the pedal at the pivot point) behind the spring which would appear to pull the plunger fully out of the master cylinder.
Am I correct in thinking that this is how it should go back together?
Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelp..........
