car people, my brakes YO

[uh-oh]

alright about a week ago my brake light started coming on, as i was accellerating from a stop. like the brakes worked fine, but when i let off of them, and hit the gas the light would come on. i thought nothing of it cuz im a G and KEPT IT MOVING.

well earlier this week my foot went to the floor and i couldnt stop. luckily i was in a parking lot and just slid into a dumpster a little LIKE A BOSS.

i checked the brake fluid, and it was kinda low, like 1/3 full, so i topped it off and pumped the brakes and things seemed fine again, light stopped coming on, they worked etc

well today they went out again, also fun fact found out my emergency brake doesnt work.

well what happens is, as i push the brake, it sorta works, but then gives out and goes to the floor, and when on the floor it does nothing, so i drove home from work basically pumping them at every red light and slowing to a stop.

i have stiffness for about halfway and then its like shit NOTHING.

my brake fluid is filled tho. i dont have a leak that i can see. im gonna wait a little bit and go outside and see if its leaking, and then get in it and slam em a few times, to see if maybe they are leaking when in actual use, like it works until theres too much pressure and its shooting out or something?

i dunno

i have about 0 dollars to spend on fixing this.

whats the MOVE

Aren't you a mechanic?

[Frank Metts]

Your a dumb ass


You need to FLUSH the brake lines you can't just add fluid, probably got all kinds of air in the bitch man not to mention just crud from years of neglect ...

[Rawn MD]

solution...

use the other cars on the road...

like a G

[Bender]

Sounds like you have air in the brake line

[uh-oh]

Aren't you a mechanic?

ima bodyman/paintline tech. i work on the outside of cars at a bodyshop. i know nothing about engines and shit. i can just fix dings and dents, chips and scratches and prepare it to be painted.

Your a dumb ass


You need to FLUSH the brake lines you can't just add fluid, probably got all kinds of air in the bitch man not to mention just crud from years of neglect ...

how do you do that? i thought you only did that when you like fix a brakeline? how could i get air in it?

all i did was put more fluid in the thing.

you talking about like bleeding them or whatever?

Google and youtube the make and model of your vehicle with "Bleeding brake lines" as well. There you will find what you are looking for. There are some videos done by mechanics on all kinds of makes and models showing you exactly step by step process as well as tools you are going to need in order to complete the job.

[Frank Metts]

You need to bleed them , adding new brake fluid to old shit it was causes the issues ... Plus you might have a small leak somewhere that's only going to show when fluid is super thinned out

[Ghost1]

Lol brakes r for pussies.

[ill nik-A]

Bro the little nugget by the brakes... It's literally in the neck of the brake system by ur feet

[uh-oh]

i dont know what that means^ lol

my pops is gonna look at it tomorrow we're gonna see if its just air in the lines, i told him it ain't making a WOOSHING sound tho when i hit the brakes, and he said it could be the master cylinder?

something about a plunger that pushes the fluid not sealing right to the sides so it could explain why it goes to the floor and they sorta work

hoping they just need bled but yo i live in ohio and my cars like 15 years old, so the whole underside is rust basically, hoping i dont bust a brakeline trying to bleed it

[ill nik-A]

I promise that's what it is. Little nugget by the brakes

Let me know tomorrow

[uh-oh]

I promise that's what it is. Little nugget by the brakes

Let me know tomorrow

oh word word. you mean by the actual brakes themselves like up under it behind the wheels?

i thought you were talking about the brakes, like the pedal. i was like, nugget?? i cleaned my car out ain't no nuggets in there lol

but yea i mean i remember getting drunk when my boy put new brakes on his shit and he had to bleed it or whatever, so i vaguely remember the basics of him doing it

but im gonna actually do it with my pops tomorrow. if it dont work im guessing its the master cylinder, if thats the case im pretty much fuckeddd

supporting my pops is killing me i just need to make it till he gets his settlement in a couple months probably from workers comp when he's paying me back what i had in savings and shit

then im just gonna cop something new

this car has lasted me almost 2 years now. at least a year and a half, and when i GOT IT, it was on its last legs, off my mom for 300. has like 200k miles, the starters fucked and rigged up, i cant change the oil ever cuz some thing is broke off, it overheats easily/drinks coolant/antifreeze

theres a million things wrong with it but its been getting me back and forth.d right when i had about enough to cop something newer my pops got fucked and lost his job cuz his work restrictions and workers comp aint paying him etc.

just trying to make it till then. after buying food and paying bills im broke as fuck. literally been scraping by since november. long post. /endrant

[ill nik-A]

Yes by ur feet that's the censor that triggers the light

[Allen Knight]

whens the last time u got the brake pads changed
and there could be a hole in ur brake line.
does ur shit have abs

[uh-oh]

i dont think i got abs. anitlock or whatever?

the brakepads were new when i got it like a year and a half/2 years ago. they dont screech or nothing so they're cool

i literally only use it to drive to and from work, and maybe 2-3 times a week on my lunch break ill hit fast food

thats it tho i have fat bitches take me everywhere else lol

i dont think its the pads. im just hoping its air in the lines. i just didnt think that was a possibility from just putting fluid in it, i thought you only got air in it when you like put new brakepads or whatever onit and messed with the lines themselves

[Allen Knight]

Bleed the brakes

[KwaL!ty]

If you ride to long or have rode to long you will need a master cylinder other wise bleed the lines and add new.

[Sick]

Lol brakes r for pussies.

Lmao did lol cuz it reminded me of Key & peeles proud thug sketch

[Neighbor]

Cant stop, wont stop

[Certain]

uh-oh's DIY Life would be the best reality show.

[Geno]

typically.. when your brake fluid is low -it means its time for new brakes.. not time to add more fluid and just keep it moving lol

the dumpster like a boss bit slayed me though

[Geno]

whens the last time u got the brake pads changed
and there could be a hole in ur brake line.
does ur shit have abs

that happened to me years ago. some idiot used a compression couplet to fascen two brake lines and the pressure blew the couplet apart lost my brake fluid and car wouldnt stop... i was on a hill rolling right toward the garage of my house. thak god i had a good e brake on that whore

[YDK]

not reading everything lol but flush brake lines, check to make sure lines aint kinked or clogged. if everythings good there make sure you HAVE BRAKES still on the pads and rotors and drums or whatever brake system you have lol simple shit

[uh-oh]

i got a big ass hole in my brakeline

not really because it doesnt leak when its sitting

but i put fluid in it, and hit the brakes and shit sprayed in my pops face


tried crimping that line off with a pair of pliers but was looking like i was just gonna break it so i stopped

it doesnt shoot as much out now, but its still fucked

its coming out right by where it connects to the back left wheel, if i could just cut that off i'd be straight

[uh-oh]

yo i borrowed the pliers off my honduran homie downstairs, all i have are sockets and ratchets. no wrenches or pliers

i'm trying to think of a way i can just put that one brakeline out of commission

i used the pliers to bend/crimp the fuck out of the metal brakeline itself, but it didnt stop it, its still going through what i did, and i dont want to do anymore because it could break it completely/put a huge hole in it.

i'm trying to figure out how to dead that brakeline. my front brakes and my rear right brake seem AIGHT

so if i could disconnect this one i'd be golden

how would i do that tho?

if i figure out which one it is coming out of the master cylinder, if i unhook that, it'll just run right out of that hole right? or is there something to stop it?

trying to think of something i could jam in it I DUNNO

FUCK

[Frank Metts]

How much money do you have to work with?

[uh-oh]

none

im just trying to figure out how i can stop fluid from going to my back left wheel. i tried smashing the line with pliers but i didnt smash it good enough/if i smash it anymore i think i will break it off completely

than instead of it shooting out when i hit the brakes, it will just pour out

i looked online and figured out which line it is coming right out of the master cylinder so if i need to do anything up there i probably can. it does happen to be the hardest one to reach tho

i mean i could probably drop 20 or 50 bucks on something, but im not trying to fix it, im just trying to dead that one line.

i havent paid the electric in 2 months and the 1st is coming quick i got rent due and theres no food in the house other than like 6 packets of ramen a can of ravioli and a packet of hot dogs and a loaf of bread

shits real out hereee. any money i spend on this car takes away from money to eat

so i need the cheapest fix possible

[Hush]

This is gonna end bad

[Certain]

none

It's your fucking brakes. Do not do this. You're going to kill someone. Get a bike.

[uh-oh]

its my BRAKE. singular. i got 3 other ones. 80 percent of your car stopping is the front brakes. 20 percent is the back. i'm losing 10 percent of my brakes

and im driving it either way if i gotta put fluid in it every time and squirt it out as i drive, or if i crimp that brakeline off and not shoot fluid out

me crimping that line is much safer

i will kill no one i drive like an old man anyways

so if you don't know how i can dead the one brake line to my back left wheel, then stfu nigga

[Frank Metts]

Well you cant just turn off one brake

[uh-oh]

im reading online that people have done it, but they dont say how, and everyone else is a fairy like certain just saying how wrong it is to do that

im pretty much fucked bros

im gonna junk it and go to some buy here pay here no credit place and try and get something on payments

i just can't afford payments tho so im pretty much fucked

on paper i make 350 a week, but i ain't guaranteed that work is gonna be there

alot of them places want like 150 every two weeks, and i've been scraping by the only way i can afford that is if i get 40 hours a week every week of every month

springs coming so i SHOULD have the work, but i can't guarantee it

i need to find another job

which sucks ima have to cut the beard

god dammit

[Hush]

Yea at the "risk" of sounding like a "pussy"
Ducking with air in ya brakes is no joke

[CtrlF4]

By a repair kit and some tubing cutter. Then replace the line yourself. It's easy as hell. I just did my fuel line two weeks ago. My fuel filter was rusted and wouldn't come off.

[Geno]

man, brake lines are so fucking fragile man. crimping and tampering with them are hard. even if you have a small pinhole -the best route is usually replacing the line.... perhaps you can go to a junk yard and get what you need... if your a decent mechanic and have tools then it would be a lot cheaper that way. otherwise... best of luck with your expenses and godspeed fixing it. i know how it feels to be carless. mine was just impounded for three days and literally got it out friday. fucking annapolis city pigs are assholes

By here pay here is a fucking rip off dude


Your going to get fucked in the tail pipe hard and you better hope Strikta isn't doing the emissions testing ( now that I know aids was a joke it's funny )

Idk what to tell you dude cept feet were made for walking and public transportation was made for uh oh

[uh-oh]

word

buses only go so far tho, a couple months from now would be different the shop is moving, part of the reason there moving is cuz they are tucked away in the middle of nowhere north canton and they wanna increase visibility and shit

but word bus isnt really an option until after the move is complete in like julyish

but if you have any better ideas for me i'm willing to listen, but keep in mind my credit is as bad as credit can be, and i dont have anything for a down payment.

i got my sister to take me to work and pick me up monday and after work im having her take me to abc motor credit where i can give them 100 bucks and leave with a car and a ridiculous payment i probably can't afford

Seems like you got your mind made up homie

I just wish your beats really did bring in decent quick bread because I bet if you look in the penny saver ( or whatever your town calls their local free paper ) you could get a more then decent car that gets you from point A to point B for around a G

Best thing to do in that sense if find an older person who can't drive anymore and generally they have a car that doesn't sound new on paper but if could be 10 years old with a year or two worth of real world mileage on it an for a steal of a price ... I know time isn't on your side

Don't you have a homeboy at work that would take some Paul malls and cash for rides to work ?

[Orc]

you are why the rest of the world dislikes americans

[Certain]

you are why the rest of the world dislikes americans

Nah, uh-oh is living like he's in the third world.

[Tic]

Sounds like you have air in the brake line
^ This. Bleed the lines or have it done and you should be good.

[uh-oh]

lol orc word your right, its not the rich imperialism or warmongering in the name of "peace", its a poor dude in a poor region of the nation trying to find a way to keep making ends meet that makes the world hate america. damn those americans for trying to be productive members of society

We should start a go fund me for him ... On the real all jokes aside ( no uh oh isn't standing to my left )

Dude went from low life scum bucket to low life scum bucket that had to pay bills ... Then his car with 4 different sized tires , no hub caps, no radio, more duct and electric tape on it then a job site, an engine that wanted to die 60,000 miles ago , electrical problems, oil can't be changed that's shit probably made a crusty ass seal and just burns off periodically , radiator has to leak and it's break go out? C'mon


I bet we can raise him 2k from non wealthy middle class white folks who feel bad on the fact that his dad is disabled alone,

[uh-oh]

yo frank

i'm sorry i don't like eminem bro, let it go

[Frank Metts]

yo frank

i'm sorry i don't like eminem bro, let it go

I'm being dead serious , obviously some jokes sprinkled in but I thought you could see through that

Was I not the first one to try to help ? Just because I don't like your beats or your taste in music doesn't mean I don't like you

[Frank Metts]

yo frank

i'm sorry i don't like eminem bro, let it go

And I would not use your dad's situation directly for a laugh... I may be a douche but I do have a heart
