I've tryed to read every post I can find & follow past advice. My 1988 has ABS, Bendix front dual pistons & dual nipples, ATE rear. Capped both MC circuits & get rock hard peddle. I uncap frt circuit & get soft paddle, still after rebleeding by manual method & Motive Pressure Bleeder( 20 psi). I believe frt circuit controls RF & LR calipers. I don't get a strong flow using pressure bleeder from any caliper. Should I be running at higher pressure? Also since a capped MC produces hard peddle, would there be any reason to bench bleed MC?
