adjusting prop. valve

open valve all the way, then mark the knob and close all of the way counting the turns. Then reopen half of the turns. This is your starting point of adjustment. Road test and adjust accordingly. This is per the instructions for mine.

See http://www.svo73mm.cjb.net/ - best Mustang brake site on the web. Matt90GT recommends "you bleed the brakes, adjust the valve all the way in for the maximum rear pressure. Once done, adjust the valve all the way out, and then in 4 full turns for your initial setting. Adjust in 1 turn increments from there and then half turn increments to fine tune. You will feel the braking and the pedal differ as the bias is changed.". Be sure to check out the site and read all of it. Good stuff you will need to know.
