I have an 95 80 Convertible that I’m currently spending a bit of money on the mechanics, however I’ve a problem when it comes to bleeding the brakes. I’ve replaced the discs, callipers, master cylinder, ABS pump and lines all around. The. Problem is that after bleeding the “hell” out of it, the pedal goes to the floor. I’ve bled it every way possible and have no leaks, it seems to me that it’s passing through the ABS pump somehow.
anyone shed any light on this, as it’s driving me insane!

Have you pressure bled it? The Bosch pump used doesn’t have to be electrically bled like an ATE type but one trick we have found with Bosch pumps is they need the ABS to be triggered and then bled again but if you have no pedal that can be difficult to do.
