1994 Civic LX 1.6L Brake Bleeding

[Gito]

Problem solved. Bled all 4 sides and finally got all of the air bubbles out. The rear right and rear left had the most air bubbles.

Glad I gave it another shot.

Got a nice firm brake pedal now.

Thanks to everyone who provided advice.

Update

So its been a few weeks now since the brakes were working fine but to our surprise we discovered an empty Master Cylinder (MC) reservoir yesterday.

We checked the brake lines and calipers and no leaks were detected there.

We noticed that the leak was at the joint between the MC and the brake booster.

The nuts used to secure the Master Cylinder to the Brake Booster were observed properly tightened.

It is obvious that the leak is coming from the back of the MC.

How is it possible that a brand new MC (Centric from Rockauto) could leak out fluid? Bad internal seals?

Any input is greatly appreciated

That is an internal seal leak. Need to replace it.

Get an OEM master cylinder. You can find it for about $80
