2009 Ford Expedition Brake Master Cylinder Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: How to properly bleed the Brake Master Cylinder to ensure optimal performance and prevent contamination on 2009 Ford Expedition?

  A: Select only appropriate brake fluid that fulfills manufacturer criteria when bleeding the system because using previous drain fluid risks damaging the system. Keeping the brake master cylinder supplied with liquid during the process protects both system components and braking functions. Approach painted and plastic materials with caution when dealing with brake fluid since immediate water cleaning should occur after any fluid leakage. It is essential to prime all new brake master cylinders and drained systems before use to stop air intrusion during installation. Parking brake line tubes need to be removed from the brake master cylinder before installing short tubes that rest in the reservoir which contains clean brake fluid. An assistant should pump the brake pedal to produce clear fluid which should emerge along with both tubes while avoiding air bubbles. The next step involves the installation of regular brake outlet tubes following which the assistant should pump the brake pedal twice before holding it in position. The assistant should apply manual pressure on the brake pedal while you slowly tighten the rear brake tube fitting until brake fluid appears before fully sealing it. Treat the process again until bubble-free fluid is visible after refilling the reservoir when needed and then proceed to bleed the front brake tube. End the process by applying torque to brake tube fittings in accordance with specifications.
