But it isn't a proportioning valve. It's simply a device that tells you if t=
he front and/or rear brakes have a leak. I like the way it tells you AFTER y=
ou step on the pedal and it goes to the floor that you have a problem. Duh.=
:-)
There was a thread (sorry Jay) a few days ago on another forum about removin=
g the valve altogether to eliminate a possible leak. You still run separate=
front and rear lines but just eliminate the next to worthless warning light=
shuttle valve. =20
