    Brake bleeds

    Merc, You should have a lot of fluid running out. Something is wrong with the LF. I would take the line off the caliper and see if it runs furiously. If it doesn't, you have a pinched brake line, or something bad upstream. Otherwise, there is something wrong with that caliper. I had a weak...

    WTF Is this metal bracket and wheel on my rear brakes?

    Thanks! Canon T1i. I've never had a DSLR before, always been a point and shoot guy. I figure it will give me something to play with between run groups at my next HPDE. Those are my old pads, and they actually held up to a driving event. New pads are Carbotech XP12 on the front, and XP10 on...

    WTF Is this metal bracket and wheel on my rear brakes?

    01 GT that may have cobra brakes on the rear, I'm not sure. There is a huge metal bracket with a rubber wheel. I was going to remove them, but I was afraid the bolts would be too long. Is it okay to throw this bracket away, or do I need shorter bolts? (Sorry about the size, but I just...

    Brake bleeds

    What do you mean bled M/C 3x on each bleeder? Do you mean you did each bleeder on the calipers, or did you take something apart on the master cylinder?

    Brake bleeds

    Or a leaking hydroboost? I'm not too familiar with the system, but it relies on the power steering pump, right? Have you checked your PS fluid level? Operation, Diagnosis and Repair of Hydro-Boost Power Assist Systems Above link explains some diagnostics for hydroboost. Very interesting...

    Brake bleeds

    The problem with the Bullitt caliper was the brake line was threading into it so far, it was hitting the back of the piston. This pushed the piston out making it very hard to seat the caliper on the rotor. Also, it prevented the flow of brake fluid, causing the piston not to compress. When I...

    Brake bleeds

    Success! Bright blue fluid comes pouring out the bleeder when the pressure is over 22 psi? on the motive bleeder. Bled all the brakes, got to the right front, and no fluid was coming out of the bleeder. This is what happened last time. Took the line off the caliper, gobs of fluid. Bad...

    Brake bleeds

    I've got to change rear pads out tomorrow, so I'll pump it up to 30 and see what happens. I've got a new bottle of ATE Blue, so I'll use it up. Ate Super Blue DOT 4 Racing Brake Fluid Dave W owns that site, and is hooking me up with Corbeau seats. Easy to go back and forth with the ATE...

    I need to pass emissions (car has x pipe)

    Come on, it's a convertible. You are driving it on the street. It's not a race car. Get an old stock midpipe and keep it on, or spend some coin on high flow cats. Jegs has a pair of magnaflow cats for less than $200. An exhaust shop should be able to pop them in and put bungs after the cats for...

    Brake bleeds

    nyuk98gt help me out! I purchased a motive bleeder, and it didn't do anything! I have the custom cap for ford, and I pressurized the system to 15 on the gauge. I opened the bleed valve, and nothing happened. I ended up bleeding the system old school by pumping the pedal, holding pressure, and...

    '96-'98 or '01 Cobra???

    I wouldn't get a supercharger. I have a blown 98, and am still working bugs out of the car. I have spent over $6000 on a simple vortech so far, and it's going back for a retune. And I haven't broken anything yet. If you want a blown cobra, buy a used 03'. It sounds like you are tight for...

    Good body shop in northern jersey

    Take it to Ray's Autobody in Somerville, and ask for Ray. He has a full paint and body shop, and can do all kinds of work. He's laser matched paint on my dad's 56 bird, and has done upgrades and body work on my 98 cobra. His bread and butter is insurance work, but he enjoys working on custom and...
