Another question on my weekly quest for Toyota knowledge.
I have discovered that my rear brakes are not working at all (they are the factory drums). The shoes are still good and have been adjusted as well as no leaks from brake cylinder. I've tried to bleed out the lines and have narrowed it down to the LSPV valve. The front brakes are fine and the bleeder on the LSPV is good. Once you get past the valve though you get tons of air and it doesn't get any better. I took the line loose off the top of the valve that goes to the rear and same thing there. I even took the arm loose and raised it all the way up to see if that made a differance...nothing.
Some people have said to just eliminate it but I've heard that the rear will lock up. Since I do alot of road driving I don't want to go that route. It's either new LSPV or Wildwood. Or possibly a used one if anyone has one laying around...the cheaper the better. Any opions on which way I should go? Thanks
