Hi Everybody,
I am new to the forum so i am not sure i have posted this in the right place.

I have a 1986 Iroc Z28 and last year the drivers side caliper locked on.

I put new calipers ,brake pads,machined the rotors and changed wheel bearings while everything was apart.

As i live in England my car doesnt do a lot of miles due to the weather and since these have been replaced it hasnt been out much.

Today was the day.Sun shining shorts on and away we go,or so i thought.

Went to put gas in. Did about 10 miles, smelt something strange and yes the new caliper is hard on. Ihope somebody can advise me on this problem.

Thankyou
