I could use a little advice. The brakes have been kinda squishy recently. It stops fine, but it takes more pedal travel to get it done, and the several different people that drive don't like that at all. I assumed I just needed to bleed out the brake lines and cylinders and all would be well. I started at the LF (lot's of air came out), did RF, and then tried driving it, no improvement. Moved to the back, did LR, then RR(no air came out). No improvement. I took atleat 3 or 4 ounces out of each wheel, and the reservoir is still plenty full. My helper said the pedal was much stiffer when bleeding the back than in the front. Did I mess up the order? I couldn't remember if it was closest first or farthest first. Since it seems like the fronts are weaker, could the front segment of the master be leaking? Can wheel cylinders leak pressure without spilling fluid on the ground? There's no external leaks anywhere. Thanks for any advice, and I've got a couple tractor questions bouncing around upstairs to make up for this question.
