It would be correctly pressurized now if you don't have air in the system. The amount of pedal travel before engagement is an indication of how much fluid is required to push the pistions outward to hold the disc. Aka... pad wear.
A soft pedal or pedal that slowly drops to the floor is an indicator of a ballooning rubber line or bad metal line.
If you are going to replace your lines consider doing it yourself and not doing a crappy job. NiCopp and a few other newer lines out there do not rust and are much easier to work with than conventional replacement line. If you pull the various clips and reuse them, the lines can run nearly the same as the factory lines.
meh. my lines look rusty too, and i got the f bodys on there. and ive nailed the brakes a number of times, still holding.Quote:

Delivered papers this morning, no ice, just cold. At least cold for Georgia.
Did an oil change. Slowly introducing full syntehtic into my car, but this castrol gtx part synthetic seems to have made a nice difference over the previous pennzoil i had, car feels healthier during accelaration. Also detailed it, all this in 52 degree florida weather.
nothing, its sitting in the parking lot at work while I'm away in Yuma, AZ for a few weeks.
I polished one of the tips on my GP. I'll get the other one done this afternoon. I polished this about a year and half ago. I never cleaned them like I should have.

Here is my other tip all polished out.

just what in the hells a milk box?
At one point in time milk used to come around in trunks and was put in your milk box. There was two metal doors each side had a latch, and the milk was placed inside. It's something a lot of older homes in my area used to have. It's actually common to put glass block in place of the door.
My house even has an old coal chute that goes into the basement and a long time ago to heat the house you needed to shovel the coal into the furnace. It's since been updated since the house was built in the 1940s.
