It's simply a device that tells you if the front and/or rear brakes have a leak. I like the way it tells you AFTER you step on the pedal and it goes to the floor that you have a problem. Duh. :-)</div><div><br></div><div>There was a thread (sorry Jay) a few days ago on another forum about removing the valve altogether to eliminate a possible leak.

If you go that route, it is a good idea to change out the proportioning valve as well so that you have the redundant system...The later valves have a shuttle valve in them to allow for brakes on 2 wheels in the event of a leak. Gerard can bring you up to speed on this and likely can supply the parts. </div><div><br></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Mar 25, 2016 at 3:30 PM, Jim f <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:spridgets@autox.team.net" target="_blank">spridgets@autox.team.net</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div><div style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:HelveticaNeue,Helvetica Neue,Helvetica,Arial,Lucida Grande,sans-serif;font-size:16px;background-color:rgb(255,255,255)"><div><span>Hi all,</span></div><div><span><br></span></div><div><span> i'm finally getting back on my 1960 bugeye, ive got a new 1275 ready and now i want to upgrade the front brakes to discs, can someone tell what year mg</span> midget donors do i needf,or this swap?, and are there any other issues i should be aware of, or is it a direct bolt on conversion, Thank You</div><span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><div dir="ltr"> </div><div>Jim F.</div></font></span></div></div><br>------------------------<br>
