lowering - brake bias valve

[dino]

quick question, got my 16v lowered at the weekend and just wondered if anyone ever has had any problems with the back end locking up, due to the fact the bias valve thinks its carrying a large load when its not.

the reason i ask is i have had trouble with this one on a previous car and just wondered what the state of play is with 16vs

cheers

you will need to reset the rear brake bias, on the n/s, plenty of wd40!

ok then, reckon it might be worth letting the wd40 soak in for a few days, is it just a simple matter of undoing the nut allowing the spring to open out then tighten the nut back up again, its just that the haynes manual once again doesnt seem to offer any advice on the subject at all

i must admit, we use the adjust and try method rather than measuring!

they dont normally seize too bad!

Good luck
