Yep it works... Did you only have frontwheels engaged??? otherwise your cheating with your rearwheels....


So if I understand right you are braking the left frontwheel (looking from your view inside the car) so the right wheel gets traction....


How does it work?? do you pull some switches and then press the brake?? Please explain..

In Front Wheel drive only.
Push the brake pedal.
Close the switch for Left front wheel.
Drive off :D

The diagram show an ABS shuttle valve.
The text shows how is used in an ABS set up.
I use the valve with the other way round (reverse arrows).
When the pedal is released the valve stays shut under pressure

and when you release the power from the valve, the valve opens and your wheel doesn't brake anymore??

With no power to soleniod/shuttle-valve, fluid passes thru and brakes work in the normal way.
Just like an ABS system during normal braking.
