Re: SRT6 brakes, slide pins lubrication
I installed the master cylinder I got from MrMopar, bled the brakes again and the result was no change. Somehow I expected that. So after four brake bleeds using four and half pints of Motul RBF600 and a different master cylinder fitted I had no change.
Doing what I should have done first, I arranged a test of SparkieSRT6's brakes, they are just like mine.
After obsessing for weeks I have got an answer, these brakes suck as far as I am concerned, with too much pedal travel.
The reason I guess is the small diameter of the MC piston, which only pushes a small amount of oil. I assume that the pistons in the calipers on the SRT are larger in diameter and they need more oil to move them X amount forward compared to my NA with smaller pistons (less?) in the calipers.
It was the difference in pedal travel that I sensed between the two cars. I wish I had thought of the pedal travel difference when I had two cars sitting side by side.
Note to self, you stupid sod.
