What symptoms does this valve exhibit when it fails so we know when to rebuild it?
</div></div>Leaking brake fluid.

Does the removal tool come with the kit and how do you re-insert the part removed?
</div></div>It could, but it's easy to make from parts bought at your local hardware store. It's probably cheaper to make your own puller. That's why I provided the specs for the bits needed to make the tool. The seat can be press-fit back into place by screwing in a brake line fitting.

If you provide replacement springs, are you able to provide the correct spring rate required so that the performance is the same as the original.</div></div>I usually can, yes.

I like your kit and would buy one subjet to understanding the above?

What is the real function of the valve?

Great post - thanks</div></div>It's used to detect a difference in brake fluid pressure between the front and rear portions of the system, usually as a result of a fluid leak.
