I change out the rear shoe and front rotor w/ pad 9k miles ago ,then I bleed all 4 brakes. after I bleed it,I make sure no air trap in the line ,( i used a brake vaccum pump w/ somebody monitor the reservior and refill it)but it done'st seem any better than before bascially no matter how much force I slam on the paddle, the brake just won't lock up even at low speed (well myabe below 15 miles)no mater how hard I try it still not clamping the disc , the rotor is perfect ( no rough sruface) , can somebody explain what is it happening? from my memory I dont have ABS even thought it's a 99 SE, if it does, I don't know where the ABS unit locate at, if I do have one i will try to bleed the abs unit first,(sometime I do feel like the pulse like another car equiped with ABS when it lock up the wheel)
can somebody tell me how to check if the brake booster is ok? I guess vaccum pump? if so what's the proper negative pressure? also how can I check the master cylinder is working fine , it done'st leak fluid by the way. ALL the Contour 99 SE came with ABS Unit from factory as a standard feature? if so where would it be locate at?
Thank in advance
