If the leak is right under the pedal, not at the MC, then it means that your long rear steel brake line is rusted thru and must be replaced. I'm afraid this is fairly common and is a lot of work to do. -- Jim Adney jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, WI 53711-3054 USA ------------------------------------------------------------------- List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org
