AND heres another way to install it

 

Got some info on bleeding the breaks... need to get some DOT 3

Stock fluid is DOT-3. Unless you are going to drain out the existing fluid - I'd stick with that rather than mixing them...

To bleed, get a bleed kit (small/clear hose that fits over the bleed valve and a cup to catch the fluid). Autozone, Sears, etc... will have these.

On each brake caliper, you will find a rubber nipple - pull it off to expose the bleed valve - put the hose on and loosen the bleed valve/screw until fluid flows out (do not remove the screw/valve all the way).

Once fluid starts coming out - stop and then have someone pump the brakes until there are no bubbles in the fluid.

tighten the valve and reinstall the nipple (not too tight or you will crack/strip it). Make sure the brakes are nice and firm and the pedal does not drop to the floor with sustained pressure from your foot.

Make sure to top-off the brake fluid reservoir afterward.

Oh and you might want to take a look at the bleed valve before you buy the bleed kit - I have seen some that have small hoses that won't fit over the valve...

 

haha i remember doing that on my dads old fox... i know how to do that! i feel so special! lol

 

Here is someone that used the Summit solenoids and made their own kit.

another do it yourselfer






Don W gives a little isight on pins?? done know what these are

Pin #30 goes to a 15 amp fuse the other end of the fuse goes to the battery.
Pin #87 goes to the solenoids with a 15A inline fuse.
Pin #86 goes to switched power.
Pin #85 goes to one prong of the safety switch. Another prong on the switch goes to ground.

 

This is Donw again

This pic shows where I got power (both switched and constant). I used the "Add-a-Circuit" things. Slots "A" and "C" are switched power, and slot "B" is constant 12V power (battery).

 

NPT Fittings are cone shaped on the end and the lines should be concave on the inside to mesh male and female together to make for a tight fit. They are recommending the teflon type thread sealant to make sure it seals if you do not use NPT style lnes with your solenoid.

 

FINALLY GOT MY TUNE FROM DOUG FOR THE JLT CAI!!!!!!! Only took a week and a half.

 

Well at least you have it. As I recall you don't yet have posession of the JLT so what's the diff?

Very interesting. THere was clearly a puff of smoke from your passenger tailpipe. Looks like you are in need of a new motor

 

Look again... That's not smoke... That's rubber that built up on the front side of the tire... when he started moving forward he spun through it and thus sprayed it like dirt...

 

I PM'd him

 

bueno!

 

Yeah I thought it was smoke at first too, but it was power... there was a crap load of it sprayed all over the concrete after I spun forward.... My twin is holding the camera... he wanted to see them in action. Needless to say He now wants to complete his cobra motor hehe
