Hydraulic Brake Systems -> Description -> Hydraulic Control Valves -> Master Cylinder
Vehicle: 1996 GMC Jimmy 4.3 V6 GAS
Master Cylinder
Some vehicles use a conventional tandem master cylinder with two hydraulic pistons operating inline. The primary piston controls the front brake system and the secondary piston controls the rear brake system.
Other models use a master cylinder that operates the same as the conventional master cylinder, but also incorporates a quick take-up feature in the rear chamber to reduce excessive pedal travel which may result from increased fluid displacement required to move the low drag caliper piston out against the rotor.
The quick take-up uses a spring-loaded ball check valv...

Except S & T Series w/VCM & VCM-A
This braking system, Figs. through , is designed to reduce the occurrence of wheel lock-up during severe braking conditions. To accomplish this function, the system regulates hydraulic brake line pressure by using an Electro-Hydraulic Control Unit (EHCU) module or a Brake Pressure Modulator Valve (BPMV). The EHCU/BPMV module has two types of valves: isolation valves, which maintain separate pressure for each front wheel and combine pressure for the rear wheels, and dump valves, which "dump" pressure to each front wheel separately and rear wheels comb...
