If you want to shoot it to me in a PM I'll keep it on hand just in case, but between us trying to figure the problem out here and 4 mechanics at King, I really don't know what else anyone could come up with that it could be.Dave B wrote:Mike, would you like my old mans number so you can run things by him?

I think I'm going to start designing a permanent bleeder system that I can operate from the driver's seat.

Already done man. Just another avenue for suggestions. he's been working on cars/honda's for years. Maybe he'll suggest something not yet suggested.

I'll give him a ring when I head out for lunch. Certainly can't hurt to pick someone else's brain about it.

Exactly what I was thinking.

Dave senior thinks it's definitely the master cylinder.

The one you've changed so many times??? What brand are you using? Have you tried and OEM one if it's not OEM???

I've tried 2 brand spanking new Omni Power masters. I just snuck out of work for a minute to run up the the Acura dealership for a new OEM unit.

I hope you havent been keep track of the money you've spent!!
Posted: June 2nd, 2006, 5:52 pm
Not really, somewhere around $450 so far

Ouch. That sucks. Hope the OEM unit holds up right and fixes all of your issues.

Never know dude. I know it seems strange, but I've had 2 OEM chevy trans's do the same thing. Works, then down the road it doesn't. Replace with new trans, works, down the road it doesn't. Keep your head up for now.

What's really weird is that each time I have to bleed the system, I attach the hose, build up some pressure, open the bleeder screw and close it back up after *maybe* 10 seconds of bleeding, and it's good to go again for a couple hours.

Anyone know the purpose of the little floating disc in the reservoir tank? I do not have one.
Posted: June 3rd, 2006, 5:49 pm
I always thought that was supposed to prevent air from being sucked into the system. but I'm not positive.Mugen Mike wrote:Anyone know the purpose of the little floating disc in the reservoir tank? I do not have one.
WTF happened to it?

So did the new OEM unit take care of the issue? Inquiring minds want to know...

That's what I figured it's for. No idea what happened to it, it hasn't been there since I owned the car.Ford Prefect wrote:I always thought that was supposed to prevent air from being sucked into the system. but I'm not positive.Mugen Mike wrote:Anyone know the purpose of the little floating disc in the reservoir tank?
