Both rear wheel cylinders replaced fluid still overspilling from front porttion of mc and idiot light is back on.Has anybody hear about tapping on portioning valve to resetting pressure to back wheel cylinders ? WHEN I BLED THE BRAKES THE FIRST TIME THEY WERE TIGHT NO IDIOT LIGHT STARTED THE ENGINE AND THE PEDAL SOFTENED UP LIGHT CAME BACK ON AFTER TEST DRIVE

Read the book on brake bleeding, U might have air in it still. On a Cj U have to hold open the P-Valve to bleed then correctly but i have never done it & have not had a problem. I just did a complete brake job on the '86 today w/wheel cyl etc & she stops on a dime. I used the safety stop brakes from Napa & it feels like I put a yJ booster in, now I have to be careful how I apply the brakes.

I never had to hold th P-valve to bleed the brakes of my 84 CJ. I have ordered the manule for this jeep off one of your forums where U passed on a link.

U have power brakes from what I remember. Did U bleed the brake system w/the engine off, if so OK, if on, not OK. U have to bleed the system w/the engine off & pump up the brakes etc. U can also take it to Tire Kingdom & they will power bleed/flush the system for 70 bucks.

There is a tool to use but first R U sure all your fittings R tight from the cyl install, double check, U might have a leak if U R still loosing fluid.
