Brake System




As we know, the brakes are very important in a car. Without it we would not dare to drive the car if we know it.
To car owners who have changed their car engines to engines that have "brake horsepower" or BHP higher (over 25 bhp and above), be sure to examine and reevaluate the original brake system is in your car. Do as I save, you ignore your brake system. It is better if when you buy haftcut your car, buy a car with the brake system and install on your car. Deer that ever happened was the car engine to convert Mira L5 brek system but still original. And incidentally the current out of the workshop, an emergency occurred and the car can not be stopped even if the driver says he hit the brake until the stand.
Basic system consists of a disk or brake drum, brake lining (brake pads), the flow of oil, vacuum pump (large black round flat object right in front of the steering kompamen engine), engine oil fund, padel brake (brake press a). All the basic tools above must be treated with care to brake effectively.
New Car
During the first service, ask the mechanic to check all disk and drum brakes, including brake pads. Make sure the brake pads utterly floating between two tweezers and disk in the middle. For drums, make sure the brake pads do not touch the drum or friction effects that appear are equal. If not flat, ask the mechanic check for this would be a problem when it left. If you can ask the mechanic to adjust the brake pedal is not too 'eat' sudden and appropriate to the length of our legs. If the brake oil is dirty (muddy color), ask the mechanic to change.
How to Care Brake System.
1. Every once in a month, check your car's brake oil level (oil bottles front of the vacuum pump). Make sure the oil is between the minimum and maximum diparas. DO NOT DRIVE UNLESS BRAKE OIL LEVEL IS BELOW MINIMUM LEVEL.
2. Every six months when we want to merotate our car tires, check brake pads. Make sure the layer is still thick claw. If we find the gripping 'eat' is not the same between the left and right, ask the mechanic check the brakes or oil channels brake pressure system because kemungkinanatekana imposed on both the brake is not the same and is very dangerous to drive, especially during high speed braking. The same thing needs to be done to the brake drum.
3. In the event of brake oil discharge effects (seen paint or any material derived from petroleum melted) on any part, ask the mechanic check it. Do not take for granted this because of this leakage may be ketch but will be great when braking because of the pressure imposed on it.
4. When adding brake oil, brake oil make sure the correct specifications. Dot 3 for normal use (usually a car with a disk in front and drums at the rear) and Dot 4 for heavy use (for cars with four-wheel drive system and high-powered car). If not sure ask the mechanical brake oil mistake can cause the entire brake system, we will suffer damage, especially on the seal made of rubber.
5. If there are scratches on the disk or drum, ask the mechanic to assess whether it can apply again or not. If we want to change the brake pads, I recommend the grind back disc or switch to a better drummer. These scratches can be a barrier pads grip the disc or drum brakes. As a result, the brake will not work.
6. Damage that often occurs is the brake 'hours'. This occurs because the brake pads do not return a floating when we release the brake and continues to grip the disc. Damage was in the tweezers to control the brake pads.
7. For auto, front brake pads will wear out faster than the rear (usually two times quickly), make sure you frequently check the front brake pads.
8. If you want to modify your car's brake system, make sure you get written permission from the RTD because it is the offense and our insurance company will protect you if an accident occurs due to the brake and your brake system has been changed tanap RTD permission.
9. Avoid driving distance OF is always at the top padel brakes. This can reduce the use of brake pads.
10. When descending a steep hill, do not use the brakes, engine brake, use (low gear) to control the speed of your car.
11. If you like driving fast and in aggresive, change your car's brake pads are more resistant to heat, such as project U. Make sure you also change your brake system, fuel channel to channel coated steel. This is to ensure that your car brake system to function in conditions of pressure and high temperature and brake reaction will be much faster when padel pressed.
Finally, just make sure each time you send your car to change engine oil, ask the mechanic to check the brake oil, gear box oil, brake pads, the third brake light, brake and clucth padel levels, tire air pressure, aligment tires, spark plugs, air filter, fuel filter and so on.Do not just change the black oil com for other equipment should also be regularly inspected. Do not be fooled by mechanics who just changed the black oil and black oil filter when we send the car to the service and we are charged with high wages.
