I've been here for the last 5 months. People are extremely friendly the weather has been amazing (on the too hot side, during the summer). You can drink tap water, Nomadlist, check that. It is very cheap, walkable, plenty of cafes, bars and restaurants. It is very safe. The gym scene is not great but you can survive. Not many hipsters, but overloaded with instagrammers (like everywhere else, I guess). All in all, it's a beautiful city, safe, affordable, welcoming (if you are white). Racist graffiti is all over, but I haven't heard of any violence. That part is sad. Sometimes I think I'll stay here forever, sometimes other cities want me to know them.
How do I know if my vacuum check valve is bad?
-
Symptoms of a Bad or Failing Vacuum Brake Booster Check Valve
- Brake pedal is difficult to engage. When the vacuum brake booster check valve is working correctly, applying pressure to the brake pedal is easy and very smooth.
- Brakes feel spongy.
- Brakes stop working.
-
- Firm Brake Pedal This is what happens when the check valve is working just fine. But if the check valve is worn out and no longer working, then it might cause your brake pedal to become more difficult to push down. The pedal will suddenly feel firm and itll take a lot more foot pressure than normal to push it down.
Also, what does a vacuum check valve do? A vacuum check valve will only allow air to move in one direction. There is a check valve on the brake booster line coming off of the intake manifold that does not allow the vacuum that the booster needs to bleed off when under a WOT condition (no vacuum). It may be used for different things elsewhere.
Consequently, how do you test a vacuum check valve?
Vacuum Inlet Check Valve Test: To test the vacuum check valve, disconnect the vacuum supply hose from the intake manifold or vacuum pump, and blow into the hose. If air passes through the valve into the booster, the check valve is defective and should be replaced.
