iv'e got loads of weird gunky crap in my brake lines and need to get rid of it stripped down calipers and it was all stuck at the back of the piston.
the brakes work but the vacuum is slow so brakes are sticking how can i remove it all?

turn the brake nipple, and use a straw and a coke bottle to contain it

if you do it that way, dont press youre foot rite to the floor and dont do it too fast because you can damage the servo and something else i cant remember what though

Use a eezi bleed kit, as its pressurises the system and makes bleeding miles easier.

cleaned all old fluid out and new just to be on the safe side but now there's something wrong 1 side is stuck solid and the other side might be blocked.

would an ezibleed kit force the crap out of the brake lines? because the stuffs moving but when you take the pedal off it moves back.
