1. Brake binding problem (score: 1)

Hello fellow listers, I am now able to drive my TR3 under it's own power. Spent most of the morning adjusting the mixture. Some first timer mistakes slowed me down. A major problem is that I believe

I have never had this problem, nor have I ever even diagnosed it, therefore, I may be way off base. I believe this problem crossed the list a little while ago and it was caused by the master cylinder

That's it precisely ! Another possibility is the MC not being assembled correctly, but since Roger's is new, that's unlikely here. The fluid spurting when a bleed valve is cracked, and especially th

Shayne, when you read what Roger has replaced in his resto. and what he has gone back and rechecked, you seem to have the only/best logical explanation , sure seems correct to me, everythinbg else is

Don't remember the exact free play figure, but I thinks it's 3/8" but you have to adjust the bolt on the pedal box (inside the engine compartment) to allow free play of the brake pedal. If you don't

Roger, there is a valve assembly consisting of a spring and piston on the front disc brakes. I think it is designed to hold a little pressure while stopped, or maybe to equalize the front and rear b

Also possible that the brake pedal is binding, preventing the MC from relieving the pressure or (if this is fitted to 3s) a missing brake pedal return spring may leave the weight of the pedal on the

You are right about the 'residual pressure' valve, it's stated purpose is to keep the pads from being pushed too far from the rotors. Not all cars have it. However, it comes after the brake light sw

I would venture to guess that your master cylinder is not adjusted correctly, or your "restrictor valve" is mal-functioning. You should only have only a slight drip when a bleed screw is loosened un

I completely agree with Bob Labuz and others that the problem could well be the restrictor value sticking. I believe that they are NOS and the old ones are usually bad also. I had the problem with m

This method worked for me when my brakes were binding. I learned about it from Dave Hagenbush at TRF. Jack Brooks Hillsdale, NJ 1960 TR3A TS69032LO 1974 Norton 850 Commando Roadster

The relative position of this valve wrt the other components in the brake system is of no importance. They all "see" the same pressure. "Pressure exerted on an enclosed liquid is transmitted equally

I disagree. If the valve is causing a problem by "not releasing", then the pressure is not transmitted equally to all components. Since the MC is supposed to be open to the atmosphere, the residual

Hi Bob Don't forget the basic principle of any physics law, "excluding outside forces", I would say that a one way valve, (the residual pressure valve) could be seen as an "outside force" Graham. the
