I had a proportioning brake valve leaking when I extended the push rod a little thinking that I could brake a bit higher in position. I was told that that provoked that problem so I positioned it back. I had the proportioning valve repair and after about six month the valve is leaking again. Is it possible that the rod is not fully back in position or is the valve defective that has been worn and can not be repair?

I would be blaming the 350,000 miles instead. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.
