You may want to look at those directions again - You will need a special tool to reset the brake cylinders. The Haynes manual describes how to make a tool that works for me. Get a piece of strap steel ( a foot long or so. You then drill holes at one end of the steel, I am not certain of the distance but I think it is 22 mm center to center. I used small bolts with washers and locknuts. You then insert the bolt ends into the face of the cylinder - there are holes in the face of the cylinder at 12, 3, 6, &9 o'clock - so that both bolts are in an opposite hole. Check with your guide for the rest, I can't remember if you turn the cylinders clockwise or counter-clockwise. If I have made an error with my numbers, someone please post the correction. Minstrel
