Re: i need brakes help
when you say that they are dragging... do you smell the brakes burning up after driving for a short time?

Re: i need brakes help
prop valves just control front to rear bias... and im getting good pressure before and after it anyways, so i'm not seeing how it could be the issue. not to mention a new one cost $140+tax at honda and they can't be bought autozone, advance, etc...
i do have two i got used, but mine looks to be in better shape then both.
if anybody could find me something saying this could even remotely be an effect of a bad prop valve i will slap one of the used ones on there this weekend and find out. other then that, im not really trying to rebleed everything just on a whim and risk getting trash or something from a used valve in the rest of the brand new system... or waste 140ish on a new one for no reason.
