Very cool pictures. Send more as you put it back togetherPM started acting a bit strange, but unlike most, I decided to troubleshoot and found an internal leakage issue.
Got it tore down waiting for seals.

I've done quite a few. re-assembly has to be very clean. Use compressed air to blow the parts clean.
Any little bits of lint or debris will make the check valve leak like crazy, especially when warmed up.
to check the check valve for a leak, just place your finger over the pump supply port in the bottom of the reservoir. if it's leaking you will feel the backflow..
If it were me I would call Richard and ask him about the bench bleed. You have more nerve then me. My car is at Richards shop for other things however I did ask him to check out the PMOK, got everything re-assembled and the PM loosely mounted on the firewall.
I have two major concerns.
Based on the difficulty getting it off, I'm not sure how I'm going to get the push rod and pin back on the pedal.
And have no idea how to accomplish a "bench" bleed.

No-fair, how do you remove from the pushrod from the pedal without getting under the Dash?????Finally got the rebuild done! First one failed for unknown reason. Second tear down and reassembly didn't reveal much so reassembled and reinstalled, now everything is perfect! Great pedal and a lot less leverage required!
I've become something of an expert at removing and re installing a PM in the car.
And thanks to a hint from my Son-In-Law John Norton I now know you don't even have to get under the dash to disconnect the push rod from the pedal !!!!!!

Thank youjust give the PM a yank and the pushrod pops right out. pushrod stays with the pedal when doing it that way.
