I wont say I was right, but I decided not to bleed the brakes because I assumed it would be pumping all the old black fluid and contaminants through the brake and ASR system (if it hadnt already got there) just my way of thinking!?
I did remove and strip down the master cylinder. I found the proportioning valve gummed up and not being able to move freely. I didnt have any new seals for the MC so I thoroughly cleaned everything in the MC and reassembled. Only then did I flush and bleed the system with new fluid.
I dont usually prat around with brakes or steering, so I ordered a new MC, however 10,000km later and the repair hasnt given one problem nor a brake warning light, so the new MC is just sitting in the garage.
Just my experience, but the guy's above have tons more vette knowledge than me and their advice is undoubtedly better.
To be honest, the ABS system is a passive stand alone component of the brake system. It's fluid, is separate from the main line fluids. This is why bleeding the brakes is no different from an ABS system and non-ABS system.
This is also why, if the ABS fails, the brakes continue to function as normal.
Correct me if I'm wrong Andy, but on my 93 the brake lines run through the ASR/ABS module behind the drivers seat. At least that's what the FSM say's. This is why I did not want to pump contaminated fluid through it ???
