DISC BRAKES, GENERAL MOTORS -> General Information -> SERVICE PRECAUTIONS -> BLEEDING DISC BRAKES -> BRAKE DISC SERVICE -> BRAKE LINES & LININGS -> BRAKE ROUGHNESS -> GENERAL PRECAUTIONS -> INSPECTION OF CALIPER
Vehicle: 1991 GMC P35/P3500 VAN 4.3 V6 GAS
BRAKE LINES & LININGS
Remove one of the front wheels and inspect the brake disc, caliper and linings.
Do not get any oil or grease on the linings. It is recommended that all linings be replaced in sets when worn or damaged.
If the caliper is cracked or fluid leakage through the casting is evident, it must be replaced as a unit.
BRAKE ROUGHNESS
The most common cause of brake chatter on disc brakes is a variation in thickness of the disc. If roughness or vibration is encountered during highway operation or if pedal pumping is experienced at low speeds, the disc may have excessive t...

HYDRAULIC BRAKE SYSTEMS, GENERAL MOTORS -> COMPONENT DESCRIPTION -> HYDRAULIC CONTROL VALVES -> MASTER CYLINDER
Vehicle: 1991 GMC P35/P3500 VAN 6.2 V8 DIESEL
MASTER CYLINDER
Some vehicles use a conventional tandem master cylinder with two hydraulic pistons operating in line. The primary piston controls the front brake system and the secondary piston controls the rear brake system.
Other models use a master cylinder that operates the same as the conventional master cylinder, but also incorporates a quick take-up feature in the rear chamber to reduce excessive pedal travel which may result from increased fluid displacement required to move the low drag caliper piston out against the rotor.
The quick take-up uses a spring-loaded ball...

ANTI-LOCK BRAKES, GENERAL MOTORS -> Rear Wheel Anti-Lock Brake System -> DESCRIPTION
Vehicle: 1991 GMC P35/P3500 VAN 7.4 V8 GAS
The Rear Wheel Anti-Lock (RWAL) system, Fig. , reduces the occurrence of rear wheel lockup during severe braking by regulating rear hydraulic line pressure. Pressure applied to the rear wheel brakes is regulated by a control valve assembly located under the master cylinder. The control valve consists of a dump valve which releases hydraulic pressure into an accumulator, and an isolation valve which holds rear brake pressure. Operation of the dump valve and isolation valve is controlled by an Electronic Control Unit (ECU) which is mounted next to the master cylinder.
The ECU receives ...
