Can I recondition caliper on Ford Freestyle with Full Synthetic Grease Valvoline SYNpower (prt # VV986)?
Caliper not listed on packaging. List includes Disc brake wheel bearings/chassis/susp./UV joint/CV Joint
Lol
You could use that sparingly on the metal ends of the pads. Backs of the pads. On the cleaned pins. I prefer never seize tho. Calipers are reconditioned with new square seals and a hone.
- Do I need some king of grease to replace spark plugs? I'm going to replace the spark plugs of my 04 Ford Mustang V6 3.8 L. I have the tools and spark plugs. I know the GAP is 0.054. However, someone told me I need grease to addo to the spark plugs and wires. Is that true? If so, what kind and how to apply it.
- How to undo bolts on Ford Galaxy 2003 Front & Rear brake caliper to renew disc's and pads? I need to renew the disc's and pads at the front and rear of Ford Galaxy 2003. I have the correct sockets and a large extension bar, but they will not budge (front or rear). I have tried WD40, thinking of trying a little heat, but its a bit near to the brake hoses. All suggestions gratefully received. I have a full workshop manual on this car issued by Ford which just says that they are tightened to 190Nm. The front bolts are huge 27mm and the rear bolts are 18mm.
- Why is a brake caliper job so expensive? Ford Focus front right hand wheel brake sticking when driving caused noise and some vibration at certain speeds. Tyre place Stapeltons took it apart after the wheel didn't spin freely and said there was corrosion in there, calipers need replacing with brake fluid change. He said both front wheels would have to be done and said 575 quid straight away. They can whistle for that… Sounded like a rip-off artist. I'm trying my local family run garage instead.
- What type of full synthetic oil to put in 2005 ford focus? I have a 2005 ford focus ST zx4 and need to add oil, this is the first time adding oil since I bought the car. All I know is that the previous owner used full synthetic. I have to add just about a quarter of oil until an oil change in a few weeks. I have heard that full synthetic 5w-30 or 5w-40 is good but no lower than 5w-30 or I can take the chance of blowing up my car… Any thoughts on this?
