brake problem ... fronts ... master cyc
I am having a problem with my front brakes. They lockup after a few tough stops, and when i bleed off the pressure down at the wheel where the bleed port is at, they have pressure on them with no peddle applied. is my problem with the vacuum assist or is it the master cyclinder the problem? maybe a check valve not letting go?
one small data point, i replaced the clutch cyclinder steel line today, and the vaccum hose was missing it's clamp where it attches to the vacuum assist, so i put on a clamp. could that be where the problem is at? was this releasing before since there was a leak there?
help please.
