Ok, I have a braking problem that I havent been able to sort out. I have an idea of what *might* be wrong, but I wanted to bounce the problem past the list before I run off any buy new parts. Here ar

<< The pedal is always firm; and there are no obvious leaks, although I have noticed a tiny spot of fluid on the drivers floor mat, (about the size of a quarter). I attributed this to a loose fitting

When people talk about brake lines calapsing they do not mean that they just calapse and you cannot gravity feed brake fluid through them. They mean that when the master pulls fluid back, the brake l

this may sound weird or crazy, but check the clearance on the mechanical brake light switch. If it is too tight, the pedal will not allow the M/C to return fully, keeping the front brakes "on " slig

I have read elsewhere that the pedal linkage on a rebuilt system can stop the master cylinder piston coming back far enough to allow pressure in the line to release into the reservoir. Could the flu

I am assuming that your dual master cylinder and brake hydraulics are similar to my 74 Midget. If both your front calipers are binding equally, then I would think that the problem is not likely to b

I have run into a similar problem after converting to silicone brake fluid. Any foreign matter that was in suspension in the original fluid can come back to haunt you. The contaminated fluid can hid
