2000 Ford Escort Wheel Cylinder Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: How to service and repair the wheel cylinder on 2000 Ford Escort?

  A: Service and repair operations on the wheel cylinder start with unpicking the rear brake shoes as well as linings from their position. Safety measures require attention when dealing with brake fluid because it contains polyglycol ethers and polyglycols that are dangerous substances and also require careful avoidance of eye contact followed by thorough hand cleansing after use. During eye contact exposure to water running for 15 minutes followed by medical guidance is necessary in case symptoms develop. Intake of this substance requires water drinking followed by vomiting induction before you must require immediate medical attention. The spillage of brake fluid may harm painted and plastic surfaces thus immediate water-based cleaning of damaged areas is necessary. Always keep safety in mind when you disconnect system components since air entry becomes possible that creates brake pedal softness requiring post-reconnection bleeding of the hydraulic equipment. The brake tube should be dismounted from the rear wheel cylinder before removing the bolts which secure the rear wheel cylinder. To install the component properly you must bleed the brake hydraulic system before performing the opposite uninstallation steps.
