Re: XJ Brakes
I don't think you did a good thing there, Carl.
I can't imagine any brake work that would go smoothly if the brake fluid was
sucked out instead of pushed through. I am not sure, but I suspect you have
set up a faliure that would also result if you had replaced the master
cylinder but failed to perform a procedure called Bench Bleeding. Failure to
bench bleed will definitely result in having air in the system, and air will
lead to a mushy brake pedal and weak brakes.

XJ brake UPDATE
Just to be clear.. I wasnt trying to suck the fluid out of the lines with
the vacuum, just out of the resevior. I cleaned out the rear brakes and
drums with a hose and brake cleaner, it was pretty dirty in there. I noticed
that my shoes are a little thin, despite being reasonably new. There is also
a ridge formed in the passenger side front shoe. I'll be replacing the shoes
soon. I bled and bled and bled the brakes untill the fluid came out clean,
and stayed clean in the resevor.
I had a very hard time bleeding the passenger side, I think I need a new
bleeder bolt. Common part?
Anyway, the brakes are MUCH better now, but I still need to replace those
shoes soon to be safe. Tips for replacing shoes?

When you take the old ones off pay attention to which one goes where.
I didn't ONE time and reversed the shoes. The "grabby" brakes that
resulted were enough to remind me for ever after.

Just do one side at a time because there are right and left parts in
