JH. Brake Hydraulic System Parts and Operation - Chapter 95

The SAE term for the rearward hole in the master cylinder is the ________ port.

• rear port

• front port

• side port

• top port

Brake engineers refer to the ratio of front-to-rear brake pressure proportioning as the ________ ratio.

• proportioning

• distribution

• balancing

• equalizing

Many vehicles use a proportioning valve that varies the amount of pressure that can be sent to the rear brakes, depending on the height of the rear suspension. This type of valve is called a ________ ________ proportioning valve.

• proportioning valve

• height-sensing

• load-sensitive

• pressure-regulating

The ________ cylinder is the heart of the entire braking system.

• brake

• engine

• clutch

• gear

Before proportioning action begins, brake system hydraulic pressure must reach a minimum level, called the ________ point.

• minimum pressure

• maximum pressure

• average pressure

• critical pressure

A ________ ________ valve improves brake balance during hard stops by limiting hydraulic pressure to the rear brakes.

Often referred to as dynamic rear proportioning (DRP) or ________ brake proportioning (EBP), this system removes the need for a mechanical proportioning valve.

• electronic

• hydraulic

• manual

• automatic

Proper brake pedal ________ is important for the proper operation of the stop light switch.

• function

• alignment

• pressure

• position

The SAE term for the forward hole in the master cylinder is the ________ port.

• forward

• reverse

• intake

• exhaust

Front/rear ________ master cylinders use two separate pressure-building sections.

• master

• slave

• hydraulic

• pneumatic
