Clean out your PM box dude!

Do you have a brake bleeder I can borrow at the next meet? I'm thinking of taking your advance and bleeding the brakes and clutch.

 

what are your thoughts on the gravity bleed? take too long?

 

Yeah...I've never been to Kev's place nor do I know who all will need to do work there too. So I'm gauging that time is of the essence. But worse come to worse...I'll do a gb if I can without inconveniencing anyone else.

 

Sorry,

We can do the brake bleed easy here. I have all of the stuff. We will do it with two people but it would take about 45 minutes tops for the brakes and about 15 minutes for the clutch. I have done it many times on mine and several other S2000's.

Just buy the larger bottle, I think it is 32oz of brake fluid and that should be more then enough to do both.

I'll bring the beer?

 

That has to be better then ripping out an entire interior in 100* heat like last time.

I will post up the details in the next couple of weeks.

Well just went out and checked to see how the brake fluid looked and it's crystal clear. Should I assume then that it doesn't really need to be changed? Now going back to my service records I see that the brake fluid was changed on 8/7/2010 at 34,098 miles. My car is just shy of 39k now. So should I still change it? Also, I see a 30k maintenance was performed as well...so it's def. time for an oil change at least

 

Do you drive like an A@@H***? I boil my fluid enough that I change it often. If the pedal doesn't feel like stepping on concrete you should flush and bleed. It's simple , quick and easy.

 

If you have only 5000 miles on the brake fluid it should be good for a while unless you are tracking the car regularly.

Take a look at the clutch fluid, if that wasn't done and it is an easy one to miss I am sure that needs it.

Good call, Kev. It is pretty dirty and could def. use a flush. I've got an unopened bottle of Honda DOT 3...that should be fine for the clutch right, or should I just get some DOT4?
