brake problem
a buddy of mine , is having problems getting the master cylinder to work correctly on his truck. he has a 1978 F150 4x4, that he recently flipped. he is now rebuilding it using the body from a 1979 F150 4x2. he has just replaced the master cylinder, now when the pedal is pressed he can only get fluid to come out of the rear resivoir. when he bench bled the cylinder fluid came out of both resivoirs. I'm not sure which truck the brake booster is from, and I'm assuming he bought the master cylinder for the 4x4. what is causing this? Also the truck doesn't run yet, would this have any effect on it?

FT76, One thing he might try, is adjusting out the rod going from the booster to the MC. MCs can be quirky don't give up yet.
