  • In this video I show you how to bleed the brake system on your vehicle.
    This process also applies if you want to flush old fluid out of the lines. Simply removing the old fluid out of the master cylinder reservoir isn't enough.
    The most common cause of a pedal that feels spongy, mushy, or sinks to the floor is air in the brake system.
    If you've recently opened or replaced any part in the system air intrusion is common. Bleeding the brake system will restore the proper pedal feel and the braking system to proper operation.
    However if you haven't touched the system and your pedal feels spongy, mushy, or sinks to the floor. It indicates that you have a hydraulic leak somewhere in the system that introduced that air. That must be located and addressed promptly before bleeding the system.
    Don't take chances with your brakes and never drive a vehicle with a compromised brake system. They are a critical system that must always be in good working order.

    Honda dealer replaced the brake master cylinder on my 95 Civic but the brakes still feel soft. Unfortunately the new part is not Honda. Not sure if I need to bleed the brakes or it's just how it is. your thoughts?

    The bleeder valve uses a 10mm wrench correct? What size clear hose (id) did you use?

    Bushougoma....when replacing the abs modulator on 1994 Honda Accord I watched your video....but do I need to bleed brakes before and after replacing the modulator?

    • @Bushougoma
      @Bushougoma  7 лет назад

      Yes bleed all four wheels following the factory bleed order after replacing the modulator. Any time you remove a brake line you will need to bleed the system.
      You will also need to fill the modulator's brake fluid reservoir and bleed it separately after bleeding the wheels.
      Fill the modulator start the vehicle wait for the ABS pump to run and stop then shut off the engine.
      Put some clear tubing on the modulator bleeder and open it brake fluid will flow out and stop (this fluid is forced out due to built up pressure in the accumulator) you will see bubbles in the fluid at first close the bleeder.
      Refill the ABS reservoir and repeat the process until you don't see any bubbles in the line when you open the bleeder.
      Don't let the modulator reservoir run dry or the ABS pump will suck in air and you will need to repeat the whole process again.

    ***** - Random question: What type of steel is the exhaust pipe on Accords after 1998?
    My girlfriend's dad is convinced that Honda uses only stainless steel, but I don't see how that's possible. There's rust all over them, and stainless steel is expensive.
    The braided flex pipe may be stainless, correct? But what about the A and B pipe?

    • @Bushougoma
      @Bushougoma  10 лет назад

      The most common material for exhaust systems is aluminized steel it provides rust resistance for a short time.
