Thanks, you know what.... I think your right, its sprung a little tight.. Maybe a pair of linemans pliers and a vice is my answer here.. I appreciate that.. Jay
Thanks, Yes this clip. You guys are great!! I have the exhaust manifold off so I can get to it pretty easy, the end cap of the coupler if falling off so to get it to stay where I need it and get the spring on at the same time seems about impossible. I might try to do a little bending so its not...
Cant for the life of me get that spring clip thing over the steeering coupler that holds the cap on the end of the coupler. Can somebody tell me the secret?
Thanks

So you can see that my car is not plumbed as the picture. Its a disk brake car and I have the valve in the line going to the rear brakes but I don't have the metering block for the front brakes? So what is going on here? Thanks Jay
Thanks, yeah my little plastic insulator is missing.. So that jam nut must hold that pin out for something going on in the valve? Looks like I can get one from Inline tube.. I will call them tomorrow and I will check the rod depth.. and see what I have.. I have been messing with these cars off...
Thanks for the help, I had to dig this thread up. So now I got the light on the dash to go out by pulling the pin out and putting the wire on the end of the pin. The pin really seems loose and wobbling around in the valve. There is a nut on the pin and I really don't know what it is for? Maybe a...
This is on a disk brake car and and the restriction valve or whatever you call it is in the line to the rear brakes.. Please tell me about this block, I thought this is a proportioning valve and distribution block? And is it the same for disk and drum brake cars? And what exactly does the pin do...
Thanks for the help, to save the math I think I will just get the little tool they are talking about in the thread to measure the rod depth. I added a pic of the distribution block, but I thought it took care of some proportioning duties? I thought the limiting valve going to the rear brakes on...
This thread is good information, but is it my problem? I have a 69 GTX with factory disks. Somebody had a Summit booster on it so I assume it was a power brake car. I just put the almost correct booster on it from inline tube with a new master cyl. The brakes are pretty touchy and it seems to be...
Thanks, I was messing around with a test light on the pin while I was bleeding the brakes for a bit and nothing really seemed to work with that idea... But that pin where the light connects seemed like it was moving in and out of the block some as I pushed on it? Could that be right, with the...
Thanks, I looked at that. i can check again long story but I was fooling with that pin on the valve and it seems to move in the block... Not sure what is going on there... I was hoping to understand a little more before I got to fooling with it..
Thanks
Jay
So please tell me about what exactly triggers the brake light on the dash. I assume when that pin on the valve either grounds for not? But what goes on with that pin? Is it supposed to move? Or be adjusted? In case of a open circuit front or rear I assume the pin moves, lights the dash and...
I can give some background.. This car inadvertently turned out to be my winter project sorry to say.. When I re-did the dash and wiring I also updated the power brake booster (with the booster from inline tube and linkage) and master cyl. and brake lines to the proportioning valve.
I bled the...
