SOURCE: brakes

Flexible brake lines are probably balooning out causing pressure not to build up, replace flexible to the calipers.

SOURCE: Spongy brakes after bleeding them 2 times. Should I try to bleed the master cylinder or replace it?

Honestly your guess is as good as mine. But I don't think the master cylinder is NOT bad you still have air in the system. Get a big bottle of brake fluid bleed all four sides until you run out of fluid or your brakes work properly. You should divide the bottle's content in four, then use each quantity in each side. You'll be removing air and contaminated fluid from the system. Get a small hose that fits on the bleeders and an appropriate container. I have a good feeling if you do this your brakes will work just fine. I don't know how you are bleeding the brakes. I'll let you know the proper way just in case. This is a two man job, with the wheel off, have someone start the car. Have them pump the brakes a few times to get pressure. 1With the brake pedal UP open the bleeder, 2then have your assistant press the brake pedal all the way down and leave it completely pressed down. 3Close the bleeder valve, once close and only with the valve closed have'm release the brake. Repeat as necessary, bake depressed, open valve first then press brake. DO NOT depress until valve completly closed. Close valve THEN depress. Good Luck!

SOURCE: 1999 Plymouth Breeze - rear brakes locking up

You have a proportioning valve stuck. From the master the brake lines will run down the wheel well to another valve then out to the front calipers and rears when the prop valve sticks or freezes it then causes the rear or front system to lock up or not proportion the system evenly. 2. If that is not the case you may have contamination in the lines or the rubber brake hoses whick allow fluid to pass through it will not allow it to return almost acting like a back check valve therefore keeping you brakes on.

SOURCE: acura cl alarm problems???

To all you Acura alarm sufferers. In the immediate term to appease your neighbors - open the door and reclose, leaving the door ajar enough that the interior door light is still on. Be sure to turn off the roof light so no one is cued your car door is ajar.
When you can go under the hood, remove the fuse - I think it is 15 - the fuse box cover has a diagram. I left the fuse out for a couple of hours and reinserted it. That broke the pattern for 7 months.
It is 89 degrees in chicago today, the alarm went off at the train station and I got a ticket for noise disturbance.
It's time to look at the fuse box again. i think extreme temps are the problem.

My clutch pedal stay close to the floor in my Acura CL. Doesnt return fully like it used too. Cant figure it out and I've replaced everythin

Bobbie, If your sure the system is bled properly,did you get the clutch fork back in correct position, was it the correct bearing etc., you may have to adjust the clutch pedal and / or if it has a mechanical return spring, change the spring, it could be weak.
Check the attached links,instruction and guides for clutch pedal adjustment., bleeding,etc.Good luck

Master cylinder

The master cylinder is mounted on power brake unit (the big black round canister) on firewall held down with 2 12mm nuts depending on braking system usually 2 10mm brake lines need to be removed on out it comes. Bench bleed new master cylinder before install . Fill reservoir with brake fluid and slowly push piston about 1 inch back and fore until air is gone ( assuming mater comes with bench bleed kit ) then install and repeat with someone pressing on pedal lock line closed before pedal is released again EG pump pedal ok hold it (open line watch fluid come out close) ok let up pump it up again repeat may be twice per line. the pedal should be firm once done.

Abs light on acura 2.3 cl 98. it goes on and off. I added some acura brakefluid, now light is off.

When you drive the brake pads wear down as a normal part of driving. When they get about half worn the amount of fluid in the master cylinder will be low because it takes more to fill the wheel cyliinders. Low brake fluid causes the light to come on. This is all normal.

How to install a clutch on acura CL 2.3L 1998

Plenty to mention. Best way is to get the Hanyes Repair manual-sold for around $20, with plenty of stuff in it. A few things:
Disconnect battery.
Take off starter-motor.
Remove brake calipers, and tie them to struts.
Remove front tires.
Disconnect clutch master-cylinder
Jack up the car and support it on jack-stands.
Unbolt the clutch-housing from the engine, drag it out.
Installation is reverse of removal.

Bleeding the brakes on a 91 acura legend with abs

look for divider block that all lines from brakes come to below master cylinder.some are mounted in frame and others on fire wall below master cylinder.could be trash blockage there.possible solution is to undo lines that are giving you trouble there and at wheel cylinders and blow out with air and pressure flush with fluid to determine good flow.then reconnect and bleed again.hope this helps as you sound like a good wrench spinner...chris

Soft brake pedal after rotor replacement

If they rebled the brakes and the pedal goes to the floor, chances are that the master cylinder is bad. Probably cost about $80-100 for the part if you could do it yourself
