it is a 1984 240 with 202,000!!!!!! i posted a while back about how to get the BRAKE FAILURE LIGHT to turn off. someone posted that i should get in the distribution valve and recenter it with somethin similar to an ice pick. problem started with a popped right wheel calipher. once i replaced it, no matter what i did......the light stayed on. also i was doing the old american brake bleed, r.rear, l.rear, r. front then left front and was told to look in a haynes or bentley repair manual. i did that and found 2 different way in the same to bleed the brakes. one method uses all the bleeders(top, bottom & center)the other is l.front, right front ect. apperently sometimes they dont reset.....and mine would be one of those times....of course...heheheheh
