the starter on his van the other day to get it to start,I asked him have you
checked the battery? turned out to be a weak battery.I think a complete rebuild of the brake system is in order. From the sounds of the sugestions
I will replace the brake lines first,new brake fluid of course,next I will look in to the master Cylinder,as stated berfore I already have rotors,pads and caliper rebuild kit, will replace the wheel bearings at the same time(preventive maintenance) The brake lines I heard both good and bad things about the steel braided lines loss of pedal feel etc.Does anybody have an opinion on this? Should I go steel braided or factory (OEM) replacement?
THANKS Mr-tuanis..........
Stick with the OEM, they are tough enough for racing.
