Hey list,

I replaced the shoes and cylinders in my '86 this weekend.  When I had the
brake lines disconnected while swapping out the cylinders, enough brake
fluid drained out to empty the reservoir behind the dash.

My question is this:  Is there a possibility of air getting into the other
lines (front brakes, clutch) with this reservoir being emptied and
subsequently filled?

I have bled the rear brakes and the reservoir is full again.

My brake peddle is also pulsating like crazy - but I think it has something
to do with the drums being out of round, or me botching the brake job.  If I
pull up the E-brake while moving - you can feel the van "pulsing" to a stop.

I read somewhere that if your brake peddle pulses, a quick way to determine
where it is coming from is to slowly apply the e-brake while you are moving,
if it "pulses" then the problem is the rear brakes, if it doesn't, then the
problem is your front brakes.
