Question QUESTION: Besides Metric tools, a new MC and Brake Fluid what else do I need to do this job. Any suggestions for "How To" sites. Are the brake line fittings metric? I have SAE fitting wrenches.
ANSWER: Joe, on what year and Model? They are not all the same. Yes they are metric fitings. Most are 11mm. Sorry no how to sites. Roger

QUESTION: 91 Volvo 940 SE Turbo Sedan. How can I determine if I have Anti-lock brakes, I'm pretty sure that I do. When braking last winter I heard the boing-boing sound associated with AL brakes as well as felt the stuttering brake peddle. Found several new part sources on line, but they listed W/ & W/O AL Brakes.
Answer Joe, you have it. If you see a big pump with brake lines coming out of it thats the ABS system. Ive seen a Stuttering pedal caused by rotors. boing boing sound? Never heard of that one. Whats wrong with the master cylinder? Brake pedal fade? Roger
