I would suggest using the new Simple Green product that's aluminum safe - regular Simple Green is corrosive to aluminum if left on too long (which is why the FAA banned it as an aircraft fuselage wash in the US). If you use regular Simple Green on the unprotected aluminum carb body, SG has this...

Originally Posted by earlyre everything I've read (granted, on the net, and sites like this, so here's your grain of salt) leads me to believe their rotors are most likely Cast in China(B/c Almost all of them are anymore), then machined in house at their US Facility (Vegas) At least as of a...

Originally Posted by barryh Isn't the bleeding sequence supposed to be shortest brake line first progressively leading to the wheel furthest away from the master cylinder, at least it was before ABS made things more complicated. It was longest to shortest for the (no pun intended) longest...

Originally Posted by Gebo Where can I find the proper brake bleeding sequence for the cars in my sig? Plus a '09 Highlander, a '09 IS350, '08 CR-V and a '13 4Runner? Or does it even matter? I normally have gone RR, LR, RF and LF. In the age of ABS, it can vary by vehicle. Get a good service...
