480 BRAKES

I am having problems with the brakes on my 480 turbo1990.

I have very little pressure. All pads are good. I've bled the system but still no increase in pressure.

Nope of the pipes look damaged. I'm going to fit a new master cylinder tomorrow. If this doesn't help I'm going to take it to my local specialist. CP Motors. Has anyone got any experience with the service and work from this company.

Thank You

RE: 480 BRAKES

As in they don't brake well or the pedal is soft?

If they just don't brake well and the pedal is firm then I would test the servo. Haynes has a procedure for this.
