Hi guys,
I was just trying to get my rear brakes bled, and was not getting any fluid through. I traced the blockage back to a strange valve mounted just below the brake booster, it sits in line on the rear brake line just after the master cylinder. I pulled the valve thing out to find it is totally blocked and does not allow any fluid through in either direction. It does not appear to be blocked with any gunk, but still will not allow any fluid through.
It has 1 in fitting and 1 out fitting, and the word ASCO on it with arrows showing the flow direction of the fluid.
I don't know if the previous owner has blocked the rear brakes for burnouts or if this is a standard item that has blocked up or what. Does anyone know?
Any help is much appreciated.
I'm tempted to try and drill it out, but don't want to damage it if it serves some purpose.
I will try and post a picture of the thing if need be.
Cheers,
Steve
