    Motive Pressure Bleeder or Speed Bleeders?

    What's the advantage of pressure versus vacuum bleeder or vice versa? I see the worry of not being sure if there are any bubbles in the system come up a lot with a vacuum bleeder? And see Dave, not all my posts are about making my car pretty ;)

    Lose brakes if car sits in traffic too long and clanking in rear end?

    I thought it might be the fluid boiling due to no heat shield, only happening when car sits in traffic or idle, and not knowing when the last time the brake fluid was changed, what is a good fluid for street driving? BTW for someone that asked the car is a 97 with 28k miles.

    Lose brakes if car sits in traffic too long and clanking in rear end?

    I started the car and pressed and held the brake, it did not move down. I was stuck in traffic for about 20 minutes, I didnt experience the problem but it was raining and the temps were pretty cool. I do have Bellanger headers with no heat shields on them, the car has headers, high flow cats...

    Lose brakes if car sits in traffic too long and clanking in rear end?

    The pedal definitely never gets hard, I am about to drive home so I will look test it out and see what the pedal does. I found a brake booster out of a 98 which I can probably get for about $50 bucks and I see I can get a oem replacement master for around $70.

    Lose brakes if car sits in traffic too long and clanking in rear end?

    The pedal simply feels like you are just pushing a soft spring and then engages at a further point down. The one time it went completely to the floor the pedal had the pressure of basically a loose gas pedal and didnt engage until the very last cm...if that, also the parking brake dummy light...

    Motive Pressure Bleeder or Speed Bleeders?

    I see a lot of older threads recommending either Speed Bleeders or Motive Pressure Bleeder, is there really advantage to one versus the other? To be honest I rather do the Speed Bleeders as I live in a Condo with limited space so just one less thing to find a spot for but if there is some sort...

    Lose brakes if car sits in traffic too long and clanking in rear end?

    It seems to occur only if under hood temps go up, I drove the car for hrs and hrs as I drove it back from Austin to Miami and there was no issues, its once I sit in traffic for 20-30 min that I feel the brake pedal travel slowly starts to increase.

    Lose brakes if car sits in traffic too long and clanking in rear end?

    I have two issues in the car that I want to address asap. First one is that I lose my brakes if the car sits in traffic or idle too long. The first time this happened was right after I bought the car and we took it into New Orleans and drove down Bourbon Street, there was a lot of very slow...

    Have a brand new unlocked SCT Tuner, worth to do a mail order tune?

    Dave, I actually bought the handheld for $100 new, figured even if I went mail order tune than I would still save a couple hundred bucks. Doug Levin is right in my backyard but not sure if he tunes SCT, I am probably going to schedule an oil change (live in condo) with him in the next few days...

    Loose exhaust cover on my GTS?

    The passenger exhaust sill is a lot more loose than the driver side, where are the attachment points so I can see if one of the bolts came off or what the deal may be? It's not the two at the top front, it's loose towards the rear by the rear tire.
