Vehicle: 1997 Chevrolet K1500 Pickup 5.7 V8 GAS
Certain general service procedures apply, regardless of whether the brakes are vacuum or hydraulically assisted. Only top quality, clean brake fluid should be used. More seals and valves are used with power brake systems than with ordinary brakes, so an inferior brake fluid will do much more damage. For the same reason, ensure all dirt is kept out of the system. Additionally, on models with hydraulic assist brakes, care must be taken not to mix the fluids of the booster hydraulic system and brake hydraulic system as the fluids are not compatible.
If the power unit fails, the brak...

Anti-lock Brakes -> Kelsey-Hayes -> Description
Vehicle: 1997 Chevrolet K1500 Pickup 5.7 V8 GAS
This system is used on all models except Montana, Silhouette, Tracker, Trans Sport and Venture. On 2000 S & T Series , four door utility vehicles can be equipped with either a 310 or 325 ABS system. Pickups and two-door utility vehicles are equipped with 310 ABS systems. While both systems are functionally the same, the 310 differs in size and appearance from the 325. It is designed to reduce the occurrence of wheel lock-up during severe braking conditions. To accomplish this function, the system regulates hydraulic brake line pressure by using an Electro-Hydraulic Control Unit (EHC...

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 check val...
