ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

Read them. You will be expected to follow them.

    Soggy brakes!

    I'm having problem with squishy brakes. If I jump on them, they almost go all the way to the floor before they grab. If I pump them first, they grab sooner. I haven't seen any fluid leaking near the wheels, or by the master. Is the master just bad now? Don't wanna fix crap that ain't broke. Thanks guys.

    Master cylinder going bad would have pedal pressure but if you hold it steady it will go down. Do you still have brake fluid? I'd try to bleed the brakes first and since your car is up inspect the calipers and the rear wheel cylinders (if you have rear drums) for leakage.

    As for fixing something that isn't broke bleeding your brakes regularly is good practice
    What makes me laugh about forums, is that no matter how much you try to help someone, they dont take the advice. Go ahead and do it the hard way.

    You got to respect what you drive, and appreciate what you have, making the best of what you got. and if that means putting CAI, HID's, a phat stereo system, and a idiot in the drivers seat...then so be it!

      We bled the brakes yesterday, no air in the lines. It's does lose pressure when I hold it down, so it sounds like the master. Thanks.

        x2 on the master.

        When I bled mine for the first time (ever), it killed the master cylinder.
