nooo an other eco tek problem

[ben_p]

hiya i took my eco tek valve off as the noise is stupid and anoying!! when i fitted this my brakes felt less responsive so when i put some servo hose over the cut tube i thought this would solve it,,,but no so then i noticed that my pads looked low msome got some new ones and went to fit them the others had half left on,,so thought i might have air in lines so i bought a bleeder kit and did that bit better ,but still wont lock up,,how can i fix this, and could the ecotek been the source of the probs after i cut that bloody hose to fit the b*****d thing

Ermmmm... ROFL LMFAO! <<chuckles>>.

Your eco-tek doesnt go in your brake fluid hose...

Jesus thats the funniest thing Ive heard in a long time.. its got to be in the same category of the guy in the states that painted his brake disks.... LMAO!

hahahahhahahahahahahahhahahaha

Its not April is it???

 

[ben_p]

yer i know that,,but i had boiled the fluid last summer when i passed me test got a bit carried away on that brake pedel

 

[TheCake]

Ok... Ben.... seriously mate.

Why did you fit it to your brake fluid line?

 

[ben_p]

no seriously i fixed it onto the air line of the cylinder,,cum on what u take me for???? i used servo hose as it is flexable

 

[ben_p]

you can see where it was fitted on my profile pic of the engine at the top left of the pic where the line goes into the air box

 

[TheCake]

Ok ok... but why do you think fitting your Eco-Tek has affected you brakes... I dont see the connection unless you fitted the Eco-Tek in your brake fluid line..

 

[ben_p]

lol have you seen the pic,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,n now we sorted that out,could this servo hose cause this

 

[ben_p]

no it is fitted on the air line from the brake cyclinder to the air box,,the brakes use this spare air for extra vacume,oh how this has turned around lol

 

[TheCake]

Ben

Have you cut your brake line tube? Yes or No?

 

[ben_p]

NO!!!!!!!! THE IS A PLASTIC PIPE WITCH LEADS FROM THE AIR BOX TO THE MASTER CYLINDER,,IT IS AN AIR PIPE NOT A FLUID LINE,,??? IS THIS A WIND UP?

 

[Ben j]

1- take ecotec
2- throw in bin
3- put car back to how it was
4- set fire to the previously mentioned bin

 

[ben_p]

OH IVE DONE THAT LOL,,PUT THE AIR LINE BACK ON BUT BRAKES ARNT AS RESPONSIVE

 

[TheCake]

Ok now we get some more information... if you read the original post - you can see why I have written what I have.

Caps lock isnt necessary.

Right - so youve cut the air pipe between the master cylinder and the airbox right? and now youve bandaged it up with some other bit of pipe?

 

[Ben j]

did u really set fire to the bin? good on ya!

maybe youve just gone a bit mad and theyre fine really
(or maybe they havnt bedded in yet as youve just changed em?)

 

[ben_p]

yey sorry for the caps im in work n use it on the pcs hear n left it on lol,, yer your right about the servo bandage

 

[ben_p]

[ben_p]

na never set fire to it sold it 2 a chav with a nova for £60 lol

 

[TheCake]

Ben on a serious note, you really should replace the pipe youve cut. Then get the system topped up and bled. Should be fine then.

And no more buying crap mods!

 

[ben_p]

lol cup cake

 

[TheCake]

Oh and get rid of that Power Boost Valve as well... I read your profile
