Hi Richard, I replaced a set of Michelin tires with the Gillettes. The Gillettes have pretty good tread pattern & the rubber is fairly sticky with a durometer hardness of around 65. All in all, very

The tape works, sort of. The only sure way of manual bleeding is to be sure that the screw is only open when there is pressure on the brake pedal & the system. This way, you can be certain that no a

Hi Tom, I'm not sure that you really want to get into the accumulator. It will require some very delicate work & maybe making a special tool or two. The accumulator is beneath the small side cover on
