What a day. I only had a couple hours to fool with the Spitfire, but I've got my brake hydraulic issue sorted.
I tried messing around with the pressure differential switch with no luck...Rear 1/2 of the system was still bone dry. So I disconnected the rear feed line directly at the m/c and had the wifey pump the pedal while I held my finger over the port. No fluid flow at all from the m/c out of the port to the rear of the car
I had rebuilt the m/c myself and I am always incredibly meticulous about making sure it all goes back together correctly. Fortunately, i still had the detailed pictures I took of the disassembly. So I took the whole thing out of the car once again, opened it up and triple checked that all the internals had been assembled correctly, everything checked out 100%.
I reassembled it and loaded the tandem internal pistons (which are spring loaded) and proceeded to bench test it....seemed to be working so I re-installed in the car. Almost immediately I began to get fluid flow to all corners of the car. Thank God because I was just about starting to lose my mind.
I am still not sure what the issue was, but I suspect it had something to do with the spring loading of the tandem pistons inside the m/c housing...I must have not loaded them correctly the first time I assembled it causing one of the pistons to bind up or something.
Now that there's fluid freely flowing to all corners it should be a piece of cake to bleed the system once I finish re-building the rear wheel cylinders.
