WHEN I PRESS THE FRONT BRAKE THERE IS A GUMMY FEELING. I CAN LOCK UP THE FRONT TIRES, BUT AFTER HOLDING TIGHT AND MAYBE PUMPING THE BRAKES TWICE. CAN ANYONE HELP ME OUT.??

 

No prob...You could have different things wrong.

Here's what to check for...
Make sure brake fluid is topped up, Check to see if your brake pads are worn down, if they are then adjust them so they are further out, your brake pads might be worn down so much that you need new ones, you would have to check the thickness of the pads, I don't know how thin they can go down to, someone else might have to tell you.

Let me know if they are still bad after you check those things I said.

 

If the pads check out, you probably have a very small amount of air in the fluid lines. It could have gotten there from the fluid level getting too low or from leaking seals. Try bleeding the system first (after checking the pads of course) to see if air is present.

I should also add that it is not necessary to drain all the fluid and start over. I have seen posts from Honda owners who see such a procedure as preventive maintenance with the idea that moisture leaks into the system. Little do they know that unlike air, water is a non-compressible just like brake fluid.

 

its also possible some grease from the brake seal has made its way inside. thats a pain to clean up. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
