Installed a re-build kit from VPW. The valve? at the rear of the spring was different from the old one, but I think I got it installed correctly. Now, when I apply the brakes, the pedal travel is longer (I adjusted the shaft out as far a possible). The pedal is solid on the first pump, but on the second pump, it softens, and the pedal travels further. Exactly the reverse of what you would expect if air were in the system. Is fluid leaking back behind the front piston? What's going on?
