Thanks again Ronnie for your advice and especially for the video. It's helped me understand exactly what the problem is with my master. Clearly, I've decided it's the valve body that's at fault as the valve to the front left is stuck closed and have ordered a good one from Jim Finn. Of course, I won't be installing it until spring but it's a huge relief off my mind to finally have the answer to the problem. Once installed, I'll finally have it on the road.
Thanks and best wishes to you and all on the Reatta website for a safe and happy Holiday season!
