    Brake Mater Cyl Prob

    in 86.5-89 WD21 Pathfinders

    Posted

    Ok, this just started - My brake master cylinder is leaking - drains the reservoir overnight while sitting - looks like it running down the front of the big round thing where the reservoir connects to it. Is there a gasket there or is it something else.

     

    Thanks in advance for all your help

    Rear End Problem?

    in The Garage

    Posted

    OK guys and gals, I have a question. This has been going on since I have owned my pathy, just 3-4 months but it has not gotten better or worse.

     

    When pulling off from a stop, I feel a slight thump coming from the rear somewhere, this would be right as I pull off and well before the tranny switches into 2nd gear.

     

    The only analogy I can make to help explain would be the sound and feel would be about the equivalent of a medicine ball in the back of the truck and when I pull off, the medicine ball rolls backward until it hits the tailgate "thump"

     

    It does not do this when starting off going down hill, it does not do it when pulling off and turning right. --- always when pulling off straight level or uphill and worse when pulling off and turning left.

     

    I am thinking it is a rear end problem but I am really not sure.

     

    Any help would be killer, and thanks in advance!

    That is weird! What do they do to help you heal?

     

    well, there aint a whole lot you can do with this injury. The tip that broke off will eventually be broken down and re-absorbed - the said I would probably always have a calcium knot on my elbow and could, if it bothered me, have a orthopedic surgeon remove it.

     

    I aint got no insurance so I guess I wont be doing that...

     

    did I say this dang thing hurts?

    about three weeks ago while setting up some office cubicles, I picked up a panel, not heavy but large. I heard a pop in my elbow, like the sound your knuckle makes when you pop it, you know, the normal sound of a joint popping but dang it hurt... I thought that maybe it just had been a long time coming as far as needing to be popped or something - Im gettn old, my joints tend to crack and pop, lol.

     

    It wasnt getting any better, it was getting worse over the weeks and my elbow tip was getting bigger day by day. So at the urging of my wife yesterday, I went over to the e-room to get a look see at it.- they took an x-ray and this is what they found.

    Since I didnt hit it on anything the surmised that I broke the tip off my elbow bone with my own muscle.
