Ok, got a call from Ford today...It seems everytime I touch brakes I end up needing a new master cylinder. Am I doing something wrong or does Ford just need a new fridge in their break room?
I owned a '00 Mounty, replaced pads and rotors, and couldn't get brakes bled. I had (in my ignorance) unhooked the calipers to squeeze them out to get the pads in. So maybe that one was my fault, and I went to Ford to pay for a power bleed. Got a call saying I needed a new master cylinder...Ok, there went $150.
Now my 1992 Explorer goes in to get the brakes power bled (got a hole in a line doing my lift so had to replace a section of brakeline and couldn't get the rear bled right) and they just called - evidently it needs a new master cylinder. Another $150 .
Two brake jobs in a row, two master cylinders in a row...What am I doing wrong???
