Q & A: Pressure Switch
Tuesday July 10th, 2007
John,
Now my question, do you see a problem if I leave out the pressure switch on the dual pressure valve distribution block? Just put a short bolt in instead? The 'push to test' switch on the dash has failed and is useless at best. I am upgrading the braking system on a resurrected '65 B and plan to use the newer master cylinder. OH, I an grafting on the front end from a '71 and it has the mounting hole for the distribution block on the left fender, so it will be easy
to install the newer system.
Thanks, John
Geoff

Tip of the Day
It makes no difference how quickly your MG will accelerate if it cannot
stop! The proper functioning of your brakes must ALWAYS be at the
top of your list of priorities. You owe this degree of safety to yourself,
your passenger, and all others on the road.
John H. Twist (Fall, 1980)
