5000 Brake woes

[John Larson <jdlarson@ix.netcom.com>]

Not to flame Mike Arman, but as a professional tech, I would NEVER
install a rebuilt master cylinder, especially one from a mass marketer
like Pep Boys and their Ilk. When their junk rebuilt starters and
alternators fail, and they do at an alarming rate, you're only stranded
somewhere. However, if their master cylinder, rebuilt to a price, not a
quality standard, you may very well be stranded in someone's personal
space. Inside their trunk, for example. I wouldn't do that to a
customer, to a friend, and especially to my sister.
BTW, I agree with the diagnosis, and the other advice contained in
Mike's post.
HTH, John
