1997 Acura CL Repair Question
Mileage: 166,500 miles.
I need help with my brakes!
Answer
THE BRAKE JUICE LEAKED OUT SOMEWHERE!
NOW THE SYSTEM IS NOW FULL OF AIR (AND STILL HAS A LEAK)---YOU NEED THE COMPONENT THAT IS LEAKING REPAIRED......THEN THE WHOLE SYSTEM NEEDS TO BE BLED TO REMOVE THE AIR
.....FROM WHAT I GATHER, YOU'RE GONNA NEED HELP!
DEF--MASTER CYLINDER....OPERATES BRAKES
DEF--CLUTCH MASTER CYLINDER....OPERATES THE SLAVE CYLINDER, WHICH OPERATES THE CLUTCH SYSTEM ON A MANUAL TRANSMISSION VEHICLE
ANY IDEAS ON WHO CAN DO THIS PROPERLY FOR YOU AT A GOOD PRICE OR HOW TO FIND THEM?
THE MEDIC
Slave cylinders are only found at the wheels, not in the engine compartment. What you have described should be the ABS.
If the master cylinder ran out of fluid and there are no visible fluid leakages, you need to bleed the system before it can work as air has gone into the system. If you are not able to bleed the system, the master cylinder is most likely bad, leaking internally.
