Re: [doc] MAIDEN VOYAGE

Brakes: Try bleeding the. but prepare to need a new master cylinder. 
Have you checked the calipers? As you've done a few miles, look at the 
discs to see where they've gone shiny, this will give a good clue as to 
which posts are working and which aren't.

The starting problem sounds like a dodgy relay or ground for said relay. 
Mine has been doing something similar lately and it's something to do 
with the grounds for that line of relays because my blower stops working 
n speeds 3 and 4 which uses relays too. Next time it does it, see if 
your blower's working on high speed.

It could be the ignition switch itself but only a probe with a voltmeter 
will tell us some of this stuff.
