Brake Woes
As if my window problem wasn't enough, last night my brake line finally gave out. After losing brakes, I inspected the lines only to find them severly rusted (one of which was completely through).
Now the question: From the master cylinder the brake line is coiled. Is this required (in other words do I have to go to the dealer to buy the new lines or can I get straight lines from an auto parts store and run them straight)?
Also, is there anything particular I need to do to bleed the system with regard to the anti-lock brakes?
Thanks in advance.
