Drum Brakes -> Type 2 -> Inspection
Vehicle: 1998 Mercury Tracer Trio 2.0 L4 GAS
- Inspect components for damage and unusual wear. Replace as necessary.
- Inspect wheel cylinders. Boots which are torn, cut, or heat damaged indicate need for wheel cylinder replacement. Fluid spilling from boot center hole, or wetness around wheel cylinder ends indicates cup leakage and need for wheel cylinder replacement. A small amount of fluid is always present and is considered normal, acting as l...

Hydraulic Brake Systems -> Description -> Brake Distribution Valve & Switch -> Brake Warning Light Systems -> Combination Valve -> Description -> Failure Warning Switch -> Metering Valve -> Proportioner Or Pressure Control Valve -> Proportioning Valve & Switch -> Testing -> Testing Warning Light Systems
Vehicle: 1998 Mercury Tracer LS 2.0 L4 GAS
This system operates on the same principles as conventional front and rear split systems using primary and secondary master cylinders moving simultaneously to exert hydraulic pressure on their respective systems, Fig. .
The hydraulic brake lines on this system, however, have been diagonally split front to rear (left front to right rear and right front to left rear) in place of separate lines to the front and rear wheels.
In the event of a system failure this would cause the remaining good system to do all the braking on one front wheel and the opposite rear wheel, thus maintaining 50%...

Disc Brakes -> Rear Disc Brakes & Parking Brakes -> Brake System Bleed -> System Priming -> Wheel Bleeding Sequence
Vehicle: 1998 Mercury Tracer LS 2.0 L4 GAS
Pressure bleeding is recommended for all hydraulic disc brake systems.
Do not use brake fluid drained from the hydraulic system when bleeding the brakes. Ensure disc brake pistons are returned to their normal positions and the shoe and lining assemblies are properly seated. Before driving the vehicle, inspect the brake operation.
Do not shake the pressure bleeder tank while air is being added or after it has been pressurized. This will prevent air from the tank getting into the lines. Set the tank in the required location, then bring the air hose to the tank. Do not move the ta...

Disc Brakes -> Rear Disc Brakes & Parking Brakes -> Troubleshooting -> Brake Roughness
Vehicle: 1998 Mercury Tracer Trio 2.0 L4 GAS
Brake Roughness
If roughness or vibration is encountered during highway operation or if pedal pumping is experienced at low speeds, the disc may have excessive thickness variation. Measure the disc at 12 points with a micrometer at a radius approximately one inch from the edge of the disc. If thickness measurements vary by more than .0005 inch, replace ...

Vehicle: 1998 Mercury Tracer Trio 2.0 L4 GAS
System Components
Refer to Figs. through for ABS component locations.
Power Brake Booster
The power brake booster reduces the effort required to push the brake pedal and apply the brakes. Engine vacuum allows for this power assist.
A vacuum booster hose from the engine contains a vacuum booster hose check valve. When the engine is shut off, the valve closes, trapping engine vacuum within the power brake booster. This reserve vacuum allows for several assisted brake applications with the engine off.
Brake Master Cylinder
Aspire
The brake master cylinder is a tandem hydraulic servo. When t...
