We have a customer that has a problem with the brakes hanging - almost like he has his foot on the brake when he is driving.
The Problem:
"I installed new rear brake pads on 1992 vette and then the brake light stayed on. I drove it and worked the brakes and the light went off. Now the brakes front and rear are dragging terribly. It is like I have my foot on the brake pedal all the time. Do I need to bleed the brakes if so what is the correct order? The brakes were dragging some before the new rear pads."
Suggestions so far:
"what is the correct order?" RR LR RF LF
My list of suspects would include:
- Failed flex hose(s) acting like one way valve
- Parking brake not fully disengaged
- MC return spring binding on goo or particles in MC
Any thoughts or imput on this article?
Update 8-10-2009
Appears that a new master cylinder and fluid flush fixed this problem.
