Reply to "Slave Adjustment"

Dang! Things are not going that great yet with the slave. I now have the new one in the car, and trying to bleed from the slave with a hand vacume pump. For some reason I am not getting fluid to flow. I build up the vacume on the bleed screw to high vacume, then slowly turn the nut and keep pumping as vacume is lowering, but no fluid is coming through. I thought maybe something got in the main line, so I disconnected the main line from the slave, and bled from the main line, and flow is fine from there. I am wondering if I am getting air from somewhere? Only place I can think is the main line where it connects to the slave (see photo of old slave connected). I have all that real tight though. I could maybe wrench it more, but I laid on it pretty good already. Maybe the main line where it connects to the slave is supposed to have some small rubber piece between the main line and the slave screw, and maybe fell out when I was replacing them? Right now it is a metal to metal fit where I tighten the main line on the slave (called flange fit?).
