RE: {Chrysler 300} 300F brake dragging



You don’t have to run fluid for 30 seconds. Don’t believe everything you see on YouTube. If you get 4 or 5 inches of bubble-free fluid in the clear tube that you have attached to the bleeder, you’re most likely good to go.

Thank you - in the video they spoke about letting the fluid run for 30 seconds to be sure there was no air. 

 

I did a gravity bleed refilling the master but it made me wonder how much 30 seconds of fluid amounted to.

Tom –

 

I doubt that doing another bleed will fix the problem. But if you choose to do that, there is no need for a fancy pressure bleeder. Gravity bleeding works just fine. Just ensure that the master cylinder doesn’t run dry and introduce air into the system. Also, ensure that you are bleeding in the correct order: RR, LR, RFL, RFU, LFL, LFU.

Thank you all. 

 

The hoses and brake lines are all new. 

 

Since a visual inspection did not yield any clues, I plan to bleed again according to the old Chrysler video by backing off the adjuster cams and using a pressure bleeder, and then readjusting all 4 wheels. 

 

Has anyone found a pressure bleeder that will fit on an F?
