Haven't tried the C-clamp test yet as I don't have enough small C-clamps to clamp all the lines. The brake pads on all four wheels have been pushed up against the rotors so I know there is some pressure getting to the caliper pistons. The brake failure warning light is still not on, so if I had a huge pressure loss or differential between the two systems the piston should move I would think. I'm going to get some extra C-clamps or the special brake line clamps that someone else mentioned to try the Foster test.

Thanks for the reminder... my brain got confused from sniffing brake fluid! LOL!
