Many people out there are going to ignore the break system unless they have a problem or noise when they break. It is very important to make sure that your fluid is broken down to an optimal level to prevent problems in the system. Most newer vehicles have anti-lock braking systems which can be very expensive if something goes wrong. If your vehicles brake fluid has an excessive amount of fluid this can cause premature brake failure. The suggested rule is to change the oil every two years or 24,000 miles, the number of miles is on the low end, and you won’t have any problem just changing it every two years. Over time the brake fluid will absorb moisture and eventually accumulate too much which not only causes rust but can also cause the heat rating of the fluid to change which can cause major failure under heavy braking or continuous use which is especially noticeable. when climbing steep hills or hauling loads.
You will need to purchase a vacuum gauge, most supplies that sell this will sell this tool as a package that will come with its own tank to bleed your broken system. A tool will cost about fifty dollars to do the job right. You will also need about 1 quart of proper brake fluid for your vehicle. If you are not sure what type of moisture your vehicle takes, you can ask your local auto-parts for help. Make sure you have the right fluid, if you use the wrong type, you will do more harm than good. You can also buy moisture fracturing fluid and make sure you have a draft for moisture.
Follow the directions in the blank guess how you will be able to bleed it to your reasoning hook. If you don’t see the directions, all you need to do is take one tube from your vacuum hose and attach the other end to the tank. On the other side of the reservoir, put on the other pipe and break the bleeder adapter. Then you will need to remove the broken cylinder cap (make sure you don’t touch the broken pedal at this point), vacuum the reservoir until it is empty. Once you fill the empty reservoir with fresh liquid, you are now ready to flush the lines. Many people don’t flush the tank empty before, which makes the process not as efficient as you just flush dirty fluid through the lines again. In most cases you will be able to redline your vehicle without removing the wheels, but if access is limited it will be necessary to remove the wheels and place the vehicle on a jack. Loosen the bleeder screw break and place the bleeder line on the end of the bleeder screw, vacuum the gauge pump until you see clean fluid coming out. Also make sure you are bleeding the system by removing the cylinder master cylinder cap and the reservoir remains at full level. If you get the reservoir too low, you will draw air into the system which will require you to bleed the braking system. It is best to start from the right rear, proceed to the left end, the right front, and finally from the left front. The best process here is to start with the last line and work to the shortest line. ace, finish flushing each line to make sure the screw bleeder is restricted downwards. Once backed up each line until fresh liquid comes out, which are done. You should go through and make sure all the bleeders are tight and use brake, clean to wipe off excess brake fluid. Top off the brake master reservoir until the fluid is at the full mark, then put the cap back on. Before starting the vehicle, brake the pump on the pedal several times, and then press it down for a few seconds to make sure the pedal does not fall. If it drops, you have an air system. If the pedal does not go down, then start the vehicle and try the process again with the vehicle in park and put the emergency brake (or in neutral if you have save money by doing your own car maintenance check out my blog. others write ups.
