well I have beem messign aroudn with the white one all morning, then I decided to pay attention to the blue chammy.

Starts up and rns perfect as you do.

Had the urge to press the brake pedal, dunno why just did, at 1st it was normal but a few more presses it felt funny. Rested my foot against it, no pushing, pedal goes to the floor.

Check the brake resovoir and yep its gone frm nearly at the max mark 5 mins before hand down to the min mark.

Look at the MC its dry, decide to look round the back, yep its pissing out from the general area of the bias valve.

Had a feel around, the pipes etc seem dry so it looks like the seals away in it.

Why not use a spare you say, the one I sold for 20 quid last year? Yep that one Rolling Eyes

So thats 2 chamades on the drive not going anywhere.

hmm what to do what to do. The white car looks like its had a recentish replacement bias valve. But it woudl have been fitted circa 2000.

GSF lists this

R65384 BRAKE PRESSURE REGULATOR R19 16v 38.00

Which I assume if the brake pressure regulator so the question is do I hget a new one or risk a 2nd hand one. Or justr plain bypass it.

Hmm toughy.
