1) Clean all parts in brake fluid. Check and replace
faulty parts.
ICup and boot for damage or fatigue
ICylinder, piston and spring or damage or rust
formation
2) Assembly is the reverse order of disassembly.
(1) When installing the cup, use ST, apply
brake fluid to the frictional surface for smooth
installation and pay attention to cup direction.
(2) STs are available in different sizes.
CAUTION:
IWhen replacing the repair kit, make sure that
the sizes of cylinder and cup are the same as
those which were replaced.
IUse only the tool of the correct size.

11. Air Bleeding
A: GENERAL RULES FOR
EFFECTIVE BLEEDING
1) Start with the brakes (wheels) connecting to the
secondary chamber of the master cylinder.
2) The time interval between two brake pedal
operations (from the time when the pedal is
released to the time when it is depressed another
time) shall be approximately 3 seconds.
3) The air bleeder on each brake shall be released
for 1 to 2 seconds.
B: BLEEDING PROCEDURE
CAUTION:
IThe FMVSS No. 116, fresh DOT3 or 4 brake
fluid must be used.
ICover bleeder with waste cloth, when loos-
ening it, to prevent brake fluid from being
splashed over surrounding parts.
IAvoid mixing different brands of brake fluid
to prevent degrading the quality of the fluid.
IBe careful not to allow dirt or dust to get into
the reservoir tank.
NOTE:
IDuring bleeding operation, keep the brake
reserve tank filled with brake fluid to eliminate entry
of air.
IBrake pedal operating must be very slow.
IFor convenience and safety, it is advisable to
have two men working.
1) Make sure that there is no leak from joints and
connections of the brake system.2) Fit one end of vinyl tube into the air bleeder and
put the other end into a brake fluid container.
G4M0434
G4M0435
3) Slowly depress the brake pedal and keep it
depressed. Then, open the air bleeder to discharge
air together with the fluid.
Release air bleeder for 1 to 2 seconds.
Next, with the bleeder closed, slowly release the
brake pedal.
Repeat these steps until there are no more air
bubbles in the vinyl tube.
Allow 3 to 4 seconds between two brake pedal
operations.
CAUTION:
Cover bleeder with waste cloth, when loosen-
ing it, to prevent brake fluid from being
splashed over surrounding parts.
NOTE:
Brake pedal operating must be very slow.
4) Tighten air bleeder securely when no air
bubbles are visible.
Air bleeder tightening torque:
8
±1 N´m (0.8±0.1 kg-m, 5.8±0.7 ft-lb)
5) Perform these steps for the brakes connecting
to the secondary chamber of master cylinder, first,
and then for the ones connecting to primary cham-
ber. With all procedures completed, fully depress
the brake pedal and keep it in that position for
approximately 20 seconds to make sure that there
is no leak evident in the entire system.
6) Perform sequence control. (With ABS model)

7) Check the pedal stroke.
While the engine is idling, depress the brake pedal
with a 490 N (50 kg, 110 lb) load and measure the
distance between the brake pedal and steering
wheel. With the brake pedal released, measure the
distance between the pedal and steering wheel
again. The difference between the two measure-
ments must be more than specified.

(1) Models without ABS
If the distance is more than specifications, there
is a possibility that air is in the brake line.
Bleed air from the brake line.
(2) Models with ABS
If the distance is more than specifications, there
is a possibility air is in the inside of the hydrau-
lic unit. Therefore, air must be bled from the
inside of the hydraulic unit to the brake pipes in
accordance with the bleeding sequence control.
8) Add brake fluid to the required level (MAX.
level) of reserve tank.
9) As a final step, test run the vehicle at low speed
and apply brakes relatively hard 2 to 3 times to
ensure that brakes provide normal braking action
on all four wheels without dragging and uneven
braking.

The following section provides information about
the tools and equipment that will be necessary to
properly service the A/C system.
Since equipment may vary slightly depending on
the manufacturer, it is important to always read and
follow the manufacturer's instructions.
CAUTION:
When working on vehicles with the HFC-134a
system, only use HFC-134a specified tools and
parts. Do not mix with CFC-12 tools and parts.
If HFC-134a and CFC-12 refrigerant or com-pressor oil is mixed, poor lubrication will result
and the compressor itself may be destroyed. In
order to help prevent mixing HFC-134a and
CFC-12 parts and liquid, the tool and screw
type and the type of service valves used are
different. The gas leak detectors for the HFC-
134a and CFC-12 systems must also not be
interchanged.
