BRAKE SERVICE PROCEDURES FOR 1990 Ford Probe AUTOMOBILES
DRUM BRAKES, FORD MOTOR CO. -> General Information -> SERVICE PRECAUTIONS
Vehicle: 1990 Ford Probe GL 2.2 L4 GAS
When working on or around brake assemblies, care must be taken to prevent breathing asbestos dust, as many manufacturers incorporate asbestos fibers in the production of brake linings. During routine service operations the amount of asbestos dust from brake lining wear is at a low level, due to a chemical break down during use and a few precautions will minimize exposure.Do not sand or grind brake linings unless suitable local exhaust ventilation equipment is used to prevent excessive asbestos exposure.
The brake shoe and lining assemblies should be replaced if the lining is ...
