Okay, the lines and hoses are unobstructed. Is the MC new, old, or 
recently rebuilt? Are both sides of the brake fluid reservoir filled up?

Only a type 3 MC will work. I have ones for any year 67-73, both 
new and rebuilt. There is nothing wrong with a properly rebuilt MC 
as long as it is done carefully. I can rebuild yours as long as it is 
made by ATe. That is usually the best and cheapest way to do this.

$40 would cover the rebuilding and return shipping. I will be out of 
town this coming weekend, but I could do it as soon as I got home.

I want to make sure that this really is your problem before I put you 
to this trouble. I was under the impression that you had already 
done this, so there may be a simple fix that we can do.
