Re: passenger brake doesn't work! Help please!

yep company drivers are the worst,tend to use their vehicle as a weapon.A couple of years ago a naughty man pulled out of the cash and carry in front of me totalling my 1990 Corrolla GTI i had owned for a couple of days.Was going to be a project,I think it was an omen so got another civic instead..

i'm fine, i hit him at around 30-40mph and had a bit of a stiff neck the next couple days. there is no giant firebird on the hood, in 82 the bird was an option, mine is all black with gold at the rocker.

they won't let you just Open the valve??? oh well, if you do have to take it off, it will need to be re-sealed when it's put back on to prevent leaks.

liquid teflon or something similar should work. as for getting sick, think about it this way, it's what dentists use to knock you out when working on you. it's a dangerous gas that will overtake the oxygen making you sufficate... so do it outside and try to stay a good distance away.
