Ish...... i already ordered the booster, alright im gonna study the fsm, to see how to take it apart. Sorry i didn't get it the first time.

Thanks

Frankie

Alright, so i didn't listen and bought a new booster. I also put in a new master cylinder, check valve, both front calipers. Im still pumping...... I thought i saw a little leak in a rear passenger wheel cylinder so that is coming tomorrow. If that doesn't fix the pumping i am considering adjusting the push rod. Is this a common thing to do for this fix? As I said before, no visible leaks, with the exception of the rear cylinder. As this has gone so far, i figure this will not fix my problem though.

Any common areas i should really be lookin for leaks. I don't see anything but maybe im missin it.

Thanks

Frankie

I feel your pain...

Still having problems with my brakes also. Traced the problem to the rear circuit. Can't get the rear discs to pump-up, even though all the separate components appear to work. Decided to reduce a variable and go back to the rear drum brakes to get things working. Will figure-out the rear disc problem down the road. For now I want to get the brakes working so I can drive it and break-in the engine.

thanks Oiluj

I think im going to tryin lengthening the pushrod on the master cylinder, see what happens

I don't want to to take it to the shop, but im baffled

Good luck man

Frankie

Biting the bullet, takin it over to the shop now, don't look down on me

Frankie

FIXED.

I took it over to a auto shop and the guy pointed me in the right direction. Had the calipers reversed, left on right, right on left. :stupid:

Feels nice to be able to finally stop .

Frankie

Frankie,

Like you, my brake problem is finally resolved. I gave-up and took it to Datsonville in Burlingame, CA. They couldn't get the rear discs to work either. I made an executive decision and had them convert back to the rear drums w/ new cylinders, turned drums & new shoes. Honzo at Datsonville in Burlingame re-installed the rear brakes and did a great job. Even painted everything!

Now, if anything, it feels a bit over-braked, but that's fine with me.

The system has 15/16" ZX master with Totota 4x4 S12 calipers up front. Wa-ay better than the stock set-up. Have an adjustable proportioning valve and after-market pressure check on the rear circuit to the rear drums.

Pedal is firm and requires less pedal force with substantially more braking power. My wife will like that… Now I just have to: 1) get headlights working, 2) figure-out why she's not charging the battery 3) install a new muffler/resonator 4) complete the heater-A/C controls modifications 5) fabricate and install A/C hoses 6) complete A/C compressor brackets 7) install stereo 8) wire driving lights 9) get interor light to work with doors 10) fix small paint defects & 11) clean & polish her!
