I just replaced my front calipers with fully loaded calipers, rotors and brake lines. I bled the brakes as well. First time ever bleeding brakes for me but pretty sure I did it right. My problem is when I jam on the brakes, the car stops but quickly but not as short as I'd like - does not skid but don't think it has ABS. Then when accelorating it takes a second or so for them to release, but then they'll squeal.

My questions are -
Did I do something wrong?
Does it matter is the master cyl. is filled above the full line?
Do I need to re-bleed them?
Could it be a vacuum booster issue?

i own a repair shop,and you need to re-bleed them again,,your always supposed to start from the rear of the vehicle,,and on the farthest wheel from the master cylinder,,that would be the right rear,,bleed them again,and see what happens then,,you may have to gravity bleed them to get them right,,this is done by opening the bleeder screw up,with a hose connected to the bleeder and let it slowly bleed its self out,,don't let it go dry on fluid though,,you,ll have to start over if you do,,good luck hope this help,s.,happy new years.
