Older P30 Brake Bleeding Problem	Greg	7-29-07
I need some help. I have not seen this specific problem. I have an 84 28' P30. Everything worked before except for a right then left pull as the calipers did not apply simultaneously. I changed the calipers, pads, and flex lines.The problem is that I cannot bleed the brakes now. The fluid will not leave the reservoir but will stay there. I have tried flushing it through, cracking the bleeder under pressure, engine on, engine off, etc. It seems as if the front chamber of my master cylinder is full of air which does not want to leave. I am an RV newbie but have 30 years of experience with cars, boats, race cars, etc. I have missed something obviously. I expect that I have jammed the piston to the end of the brake switch but have been unable to find it yet... or something similiar.... but am open to suggestions. The master is up above the driver front wheel so access is very limited. I will focus on that area as I start today. Please help. Thanks! Greg

Hey Greg, I wish you would have mentioned what the solution to your brake bleeding issue was because I am having the identical broblem with my 1989 32ft Bravo MH. Any suggestions? (Bravo purchased some surplus 1988 Winnebago chassis I understand, so it is the same as the Winny's)
