The Servoectomy is going well. I'm not rushing it as I have other things on
as well.
I got the servo off today and reconnected the brake lines. Bled the brakes
with a vacuum bleeder and all seems well, but I haven’t tested them in action
obviously.
Look no Servo !! |
One thing that had me intrigued for a bit was the front brake connection
via the distribution piece. The guide I am following show it screwed back into its original mounting,
but turned through 90 degrees or so. I found that if I tried to do this the top
pipe from the master cylinder on the handlebars, would be stressed on full lock.
I got round it by adding a a short aluminium bracket so that the junction could
move forward by about 3 or 4 cm. This seems to have solved the issue.
It is easy to underestimate the degree to which brake fluid trickles! I caught it eventually and took a lot of care to mop and clean up, but the stuff is evil!
Tomorrow its the electrics.
