Ok heres my deal ! ive read tons on this stuff and i thought i was doing it correct but maybe not so im ask`n for help .....new calipers,new pads, new fluid,power bled first then manuel multipal times.and still only have half a pedal still.No sign of air in the lines (bubbles)and flushed until all the little bits of dirt or(dirty fluid) whatever it was flowing through the clear hose on the bleeder was gone. Master cyclinder is only ten years old (could B the culprit)?? P-valve seems to be ok! when i pump the pedal i think i can hear it working ? what else could it be in that general area that sound like a spring do`n its thing..the car will stop and the wheels will almost lockup ....O yah i set the venting clearane at 0,008 thats what the book said to do both inside and out ..I was told 0.004 was what it should have been! could this be the issue..will 0.004 make that much defferants and if so will i have to start the bleed process all over again ..I think i will anyway ...so thats my story .....I didnt put any pepperoni grease on it Mr towle ! but if you think it will help!! LMAO (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) Thanks everyone

Yes you can adjust the rears without opening up the fluid system.
It the manual its regular maintenance. These rear calipers are not self adjusting like most. You need to do this as the pads wear...its a regular item to check. Learn how to do it right and buy the correct long ass allen wrench for the job. Rich |
