Leyland 462 Synchro
Hello everyone! Does anyone have some experience on Leyland tractors? I have a 1979 model and I’m experiencing a problem with the braking system. Any advice is welcome! Thanks!

An explanation or description of your specific problem would be more likely to get suggestions.

Thanks for the reply. There seems to be loss of brake fluid although I cannot locate any leaks in the breaking system. I have replaced both cylinders with new ones and after consulting a local mechanic he told me to check the shuttle valve which I disassembled, cleaned and reassembled. After removing all the air from the system the brakes worked well but only for a day. After that they went to their previous condition where the pedals go full down to actually work a little. I’ve searched the net for another shuttle valve as the mechanic and the manual suggests to replace if it is broken but can’t find any as these parts are hard to find.

When searching do you use the OEM part number..?? Using the OEM part number instead of a generic search term will find you exactly what you need if the part number is listed anywhere on the internet. I get the best results using Google. Usually helps to put it in quotations marks.
