Hmmm. Years ago I would say that, considering I rebuilt the brakes, they
were good and if my dad had problems, it would be my Dad's fault. Now, I
rebuilt my brakes they are good and my son has problems with them. Whose
fault is it now?? My son's. Never admit your mistakes.
Never forget that the slightest little thing can cause a brake foul up. In
my case it was forgetting to put the spring washer back into the master
cylinder that caused me to pump quarts of fluid through trying to find the
air bubble that never existed. Thank God I still use DOT 3-4 rather than
silicon which would certainly have bankrupted me before the stock market
could.
As any kid on a long trip will say, are we having fun yet? No, says his
sister, Are we there yet?. And I say to both. Be quiet or I will send you
back to your parents. This is the magic of Healeydom.

Subject: [Healeys] Brake Booster
I have a buddy who just rebuilt his Dad's Healey's brakes. He did
everything
brand new and is using silicon brake fluid. Anyway he drove it around the
block a couple of times and it was fine, but when his Dad drove it the
brakes
would lock up and stay locked. He think he has traced the problem to the
rebuilt power assist booster. I have a BN4 w/o a booster so I'm no help. Any
ideas?
