All my car buddies say they want to come help me (drink beer) in the garage, but they always seem busy when I need a second person. Normally I'd grab the missus but she's out of town.
So what's a fella supposed to do when trying to get rid of that spongie pedal by trying to get that little bit of air out out of the brake system.?
Standing there staring with my beer for back up; I noticed my seat back had about 3-4" of spring back and the plan was hatched. I'd use a stick of the right length to depress the brake pedal and the spring action to move the pedal down slightly without bottoming out and the hold steady position. I used a moving blanket on the seat back and held a downward (tightening) pressure on the stick with the seat belt.
To even my own surprise, it worked pretty good. Not fast by any means, but it worked. And I've heard it said before, "it ain't dumb if it works".
