What can cause low brake pressure??

[GalantEVOII]

So I noticed all of a sudden I have a low brake pressure... I spotted a leak on the driver's side caliper and did the repairs... That stopped the leak... but the low pressure is still there. Do I have to bleed the brakes or am I suffering from an air bubble? My brake fluid reservoir is full and I inspected the braking system for more leaks.

bleeding the brakes will get rid of the air bubble, if there is one

I hope so because the pedal goes to the floor then if I pump it, it gets tough again then it goes to the floor if I don't stop for a while.

haha if you haven't bled the brakes.. that is definately your problem. I would check all 4 calipers if bleeding the one doesn't fix it. Btw it will take 2 people to bleed to brake lines.

Indeed... this cold weather makes it horrible to fing a brake-bleeding partner haha!!! I'll do it after I finish the drum to disc conversion tomorrow. AutoZone doesn't carry the hoses and I couldn't find anyone that does... BTW I need another Eclipse Wheel like the one in your sig on your G.

Remember to bleed the corner farthest from the master first if bleeding only the caliper you repaired doesnt get rid of the problem.

That makes sense. Gotcha!!
