Hi Dan,

I am going to sound more of an alarm than you have heard so far. Once air is introduced into the lines as is likely from your report of an empty master cylinder, the brakes have to be correctly purged of air before your coach will safely stop. I would not drive even to the gas station before restoring your brakes. My two Euros (we are currently in Slovakia) anyway.

So normally the front reservoir is for the rear brakes? I don't think I switched the lines, but it is possible. It sure seamed like it was the front
brakes that were not working in the driveway. I'll have to pull there rear drums. I do hate jacking the coach up. Thanks!
