Alright, bout 2months ago I spilled motor oil on my driver side rear caliper, pads etc...after i bleed the brakes from replacing a line, that side just will not work right. Went riding for a weekend thinking it would maybe get better, stilll not right. Think the oil ruined the pads? |

Do not get them too hot as it will make them crumble. BTW do not breath the fumes. |

soak em in gas for a few hours then let them dry in the sun. Or just spray em good with brake parts cleaner and ley it go. They'll shape up. |
