Haha cause at the moment I can quite easily push the pedal to the floor with no stopping resistance at all

How would I know if I've blown the seals in the master cylinder?

unless you have someone handy i would use a pressure brake bleeder. if theres an issue with pressure and blown seals you could always turn the pressure down

The post above was right . I bled my brake and they were still crap until I bled them at the two nipples on the master cylinder , then they were mint

Gunsons Eezi-Bleed kit and this guide every time :afro:

Just make sure you keep the bottle topped up and do the two nipples on the MC and you will be OK, just resist the temptation to pump the pedal - too easy to flip the seals  :wink:
