No Brakes! Front Disc 71 Lemans
Trying to get my car on the road but do not have any front brakes. 1971 Lemans Sport Convertible, front disc brakes. All new stuff including master cylinder, lines, etc. Rear wheel cylinders seem to bleed out air fine but can't get air out of LF disc caliper bleeder. Tested brake light switch on combination valve seems OK, no light. RF seems to bleed and remove air but not LF, just get fluid mixed in with air. Absolutely no front brake pressure with bleeders closed. Did do a MC bench bleed awhile back and re-blead the front reservoir just now, lots of air in that as well. Thanks in advance!

Had something similar occur with my '71 LeMans. Disassembled, cleaned, and reassembled the combination valve. Years of sludge prevented fluid flow.

I had the same issue with my 72 Lemans vert. It was the new caliper. One was good and one was bad.
