I was helping my sister out and replaced the disks and pads on her Ford KA. Went round in order to get the air out of the system and three were OK, back right was a little tight, however, the last one to do in the sequence - back left brake drum - SNAPPED OFF
Now I watched as someone pumped on the peddle and no brake fluid was coming out, so I presume it didn't move at all to let air in. So, I took it for a drive and it was ok, obviously it will take a while for the new brakes to bed in anyway but the question is - what do I do?
A) Nothing, it works, leave it, it's a £1k car. Unless you need to do work on the drum for the MOT or something, which you can replace it then. (Is this advisable?)
B) Drill it out (How hard is that?
)
C) Replace Drum piston / cylinder - which contains a new nipple
Thoughts please gents.
(p.s. yea yea, no actual nipples, but made you look
)
