Can it drop the pressure? Doesn't it just stop the pressure in the rear from increasing further? I think the rear is pressurised when the deceleration valve is closed, definitely enough for the switch. What do you think?

I don't know but good engineering practice says don't take the chance.

Hi
Thanks for asking and your help. The car is comming along not badly work pressure is a bit too much but the car gets a little attention and does unwynd from work.

here is how it works
its fitted angled with the input to the top/front angled to the front of the car when you step on the brakes hard there is a little spool valve that travels uphill by enertia preventing the rear brake lines form increaseing fluid pressure stoping the rear wheels from locking as the back goes light so the harder you push the pedel the rear gets no pressure rise the steeper you set the angle the harder it is for the valve to work when your stoped and level the back should get full pressure hope that helps |

This might be a really stupid question - but on the rollers for the IVA test will these deceleration valves work as the car is not actually physically decelerating

Same for any car thats on test, weather new or old.

So it would seem then that for our purpose of IVA there is no benefit in fitting one.

But! it will give you better braking benifits, I think

I would have thought that when braking all the weight transfer will be forwards so the majority of the braking will be done by the front brakes and you will then become traction limited. At the back of the car, the weight will reduce and you will also become traction limited because of the reduction in load on the tyre - i.e. the rears will lock because they are lifting off the road and have a neglibile braking effort.
