    817 primer pump help

    817 primer pump help

    Just saw this. I installed a new pump yesterday but realized when removing the old one that it was likely just the 2 O rings inside. I plan to replace those and reinstall to see if thats all it was. If so I will have a new pump on the shelf as a spare if need be. Thanks for the replies.

    Thanks for the help, I will leave the pedal alone. I havent done an exhaustive search for leaks but the fluid stays up in the MC so I dont think there are any leaks. Also, the pedal does stay up, and returns to the top once I push it to the floor, it just doesnt do anything in the way of...

    M817 brake help needed

    They place I work purchased an 817 recently, knowing the brakes needed some attention. There is almost no brakes at all, only the last 5-10% of the pedal does anything and that is very very little.
