System Components
Refer to Figs. through for ABS component locations.
Power Brake Booster
The power brake booster reduces the effort required to push the brake pedal and apply the brakes. Engine vacuum allows for this power assist.
A vacuum booster hose from the engine contains a vacuum booster hose check valve. When the engine is shut off, the valve closes, trapping engine vacuum within the power brake booster. This reserve vacuum allows for several assisted brake applications with the engine off.
Brake Master Cylinder
Aspire
The brake master cylinder is a tandem hydraulic servo. When t...

Disc Brakes -> Rear Disc Brakes & Parking Brakes -> Brake Disc Service
Vehicle: 1998 Mercury Tracer LS 2.0 L4 GAS
Disc brake service is critical due to the close tolerances required in machining the brake disc to ensure proper brake operation.
Maintaining close control of the shape of the rubbing surfaces is necessary to prevent brake roughness. In addition, the surface finish must be non-directional and maintained at a micro-inch finish. This is necessary to avoid pulls and erratic performance and promote long lining life and equal lining wear of both the lefthand and righthand brakes.
Do not attempt to refinish the rubbing surfaces unless precision equipment,...
