DISC BRAKES, GENERAL MOTORS -> General Information -> BRAKE DISC SERVICE
Vehicle: 1990 Chevrolet Caprice 4.3 V6 GAS
Servicing of disc brakes is extremely critical due to the close tolerances required in machining the brake disc to insure proper brake operation.
The maintenance of these close controls of the shape of the rubbing surfaces is necessary to prevent brake roughness. In addition, the surface finish must be non-directional and maintained at a micro inch finish. This close control of the rubbing surface finish is necessary to avoid pulls and erratic performance, and to promote long lining life and equal lining wear of both left and right brakes.
In light of the foregoing remarks, ref...

Vehicle: 1990 Chevrolet Caprice Classic 5.0 V8 GAS
DUAL MASTER CYLINDER
Front & Rear Split System
When the brake pedal is depressed, both the primary (front brake) and the secondary (rear brake) master cylinder pistons are moved simultaneously to exert hydraulic fluid pressure on their respective systems,Figs. and .
If the rear (secondary) brake system fails, initial brake pedal movement will cause the unrestricted secondary piston to bottom in the master cylinder bore. Primary piston movement will displace hydraulic fluid in the primary section of the master cylinder to actuate the front brake system.
If the front (primary) brak...
