RE:MGB Brake Failure

["Michael P. Ohleger" <mikeoh@bellatlantic.net>]

Trevor,

I cured my similar problem by overhauling the cylinders and replacing 
the shoes (you have to replace both sides, dammit) Whilst doing the 
overhaul I noted that the natural rubber seals were rotted, no doubt 
from the PO using the wrong fluid.  This is the second winter and no 
brake problems.  You will have to bleed *all* cylinders and this is a 
good practice anyhhow since this removes the moisture from all through 
your lines.  Good luck!
