Not if you're running an oversized filter. (Motorcraft FL-1A, Purolator PL30001, Wix 51515, Napa 1515, etc.) Then it takes some ware between 6.5 qt. and 7 qt.

Installed new front calipers, pads, rear shoes, and Crown Automotive stainless steel lines front and rear.
But, now the brake pedal will travel all the way to the floor with hardly any resistance. Even after a full system bleed, and going around many times to insure no air is present. The brake pedal still goes all the way to the floor with hardly any resistance.
I think since I left the brake system open to air for 3+ months , the master cylinder is now seized. That makes sense right?

I have a 55 gallon drum of it on my roof rack- sure it's used oil but I have a coffee filter between the hose that runs down and where it goes into the engine. I only have to replace it every 2 weeks depending on how much I drive.

You could try removing the master cylinder and bench bleed it then reinstall. Or just replace it since they are pretty cheap!

Is it obnoxious angry or like a lowish grumble angry?
