Barry,

As stated in other posts about checking your  lines, etc.  You may have even 
received a new part that is defective.  It happens too often.

If you compare the cost of replacing questionable or older parts on a brake 
system as compared to a possible accident, there is NO comparison.

Just ask George who bravely drove my car back from Blackhawk in Madison 
during rush hour traffic and only had the emergency brake to use (and he had 
to a few times), it's not fun!!

Just my .02 !!
