As reported a couple of months ago, I had some problems with the brake
pedals on my KR-2. The pedals were not wide enough for my shoes to fit and
my shoes were jamming against the vertical rudder links and the master
cylinders. The left pedal was also rubbing on a bolt head on the vertical

Folks,
I've heard back from Steve Bennett at Great Plains about my brake problem. He
has been really helpful given my difficulty in explaining my system to him in
email words. He has no knowledge of the problem previously which suggests it is
my setup at fault.
Steve suggests that if the cylin
Hi Jeff
I'm using a Castrol automotive DOT 4 green fluid. Great Plains says to use
automotive rather than the aviation red mineral stuff because automotive seals
are used. Nontheless I reckon you are on the right track with the fluid
expansion.
Today was hot, the brakes locked and I cracked th
..and I should clarify what I said earlier. My system does not have a
integral resevoir as such like you see in, for example, my Cessna Cardinal. All
fluid storage is within the master itself which is about 3" long by 1" diameter.

There are a couple of things that can be going on here.

What type of brakes do you have installed. Most brakes
Tim & Netters;
The best way I have ever found to bleed brakes is to "pull" the brake fluid
from the bleeder screw at the wheel cylinder or caliper with a vacuum pump.
Most auto part stores sell these for about $25. Just keep your eye on the
reservoir to make sure it never runs dry.
As far as t
me know.

AS&S shows an exploded diagram with only 1 O-ring seal for the caliper
piston. If this is all there is to it, I will rebuild it myself.
