Re: Why Do Brake Lines Curl off Master Cylinder?

[D J <djohn14296@xxxxxxxxx>]

Herb, you may have hit on something there? Need to pass this along to Nascar, so their brakes don't heat up on short tracks. The wrap around metal guard is only placed along a certain section of the brake line. I believe just as it makes its turn under the car and a few feet beyond. Was put there to protect the brake lines from road trash hitting it and possibly causing a leak and no brakes. Remember single MC.

So I guess the brakes must overheat with out the coils.

They do put the coiled spring brake lines under the hood of many cars.  Open the hood of a 1975+ GM car....they are right there on the master cyl.  I know it's a GM and pron to fly apart, but that's not why the coils around the lines are there.  But the brake like that runs the body line under neath the car, the one exposed to rocks and road debris does not have the coiled spring thing on it.  --
