1991 Brake Guides

Anyone have any documents on checking for rear damage to the brake lines due to a blow tire?

Brake pressure is gone so i'm asumming that air got into the system also

when i threw on the spare, the brake pressure was normal but since the orginal rim and tire went back on the brake system has become deadly unsafe

Not to mention the oil fluid all over the inside of the tire this is only on the rear right tire

Re: 1991 Brake Guides

Take the tire off and physically check teh lines starting at the caliper and working your way forward. You should be able to see where they are damaged by the line being wet with brake fluid. Also, if you find a damaged line, you'll have to reset the proportioning valve. Follow the lines from the master cylinder to a brass fitting with a rubber cap on one end. Under the cap is a button that will trip when pressure loss is detected. Push it back in to restore fluid flow to the damaged line(s)
