Afternoon All, The trusty sj has an issue with the brakes.

The pedal goes to the floor (like theres air in the system) but have bleed the system and still the same and they only seem to work on the front!!
You can pump the pedal and then it goes hard and they all work

Thinking Its possible the master cylinder but whats everyone else's thoughts.

Maybe the proportioning valve at the back?

Just an aside, I see your snorkel is dressed to the left how's that routed around in your engine bay?

Ok Thanks Twiss Will Have A Look.

SherwoodNash its connected to the original 1300 air box, metal flexi hose from there round in front of radiator and pocked up inside the snorkel 2-3 inch's will send you some pics tomorrow if you wanted?

That's OK mate, just curious how it went around the engine, it must warm the air up a bit on the way thru to the carb then?

What brakes are on the rear?

If its disc converted need to make sure the bleed nipple is at the top when you bleed them otherwise you can't get the air out.

Still got shoes on the back mate

The other thing you should check is that the drum adjuster are all in good working order

Some don't have a bleed nipple but if it does make sure this is bled.
