Re: Finn's KA24DET

Napa only had domestic but the O'Reilly s down the street had some lines. Went home, bent em up and threw them in. The front brake line leaked :( I took it out and checked the threads and what not. Everything seemed normal. Tried again with no luck so pulled the line again and inspected the mating s...

Re: Finn's KA24DET

Re: Finn's KA24DET

i never removed the valves before installing it. i get what you mean by the fact the 510 came with front disc so it shouldn't matter so i'm a little confused as well. when i get home i'm going to take them out and jack the front again and see if the bleed back fully releases the rotors. perhaps the ...

Re: Finn's KA24DET

oops :oops: Master Cylinders have a Residual Check Valve which preloads the drum brakes with about 10 psi pressure. Only the portion of the M/C for the drums has a residual valve.

Re: Finn's KA24DET

I need to do some research. just ven...

Re: Finn's KA24DET

awhile ago, before I left for Japan. I bought a new manifold after a night of too many beers and boredom.
