Ok, it's all fixed. When I went to bleed, something was still off, and was leaking from the same spot, so I took it apart again. I found the issue. The washer in the end was jammed up against the outlet, bent in half. I replaced it with the new one, put it back together and painfully bled...

Link for those wondering about the sprayer. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?3229-Deuce-Power-Bleeder-R4x4-Style Looks like I have a buddy for tomorrow, anyone else on the manual process? All 4 bleed screws? Any order? Pump the brakes or slow push. The car method of pump, then...

So I found that the reservoir was completely empty, so that's why it wasn't leaking before. I filled it up, and sure enough the leak came out the bottom of the air canister when I hit the brakes, but as Jason mentioned probably out the gasket. I rebuilt the plunger and the plastic cap, but keep...

bump for the smart peeps.

OK, I've poured through the TM on this one. This is a M103A3, with an MKT sitting on top. The hand brakes do work to stop the trailer, but I have noticed some fluid only when the brakes are applied. Since I have not had soldier B to help, I have not been able to pump the brakes and notice...
