Hey all,
Love the forum and have been diggging through the archives and can't find what I am having problems with. Here's the story.
Once I got the car running, I took it out in my neighborhood to shake it down a bit (nuthin extreme) I notcied that upon hitting the brakes, it pulled to the left. I figured I had a cliper locking , so I took it home. Replaced both front calipers, rotors, brake hoses and re-bled. Bled without major issues, leaving a nice brake pedal feel. So, Back to the neighborhood. All the sudden, no brakes. Back to the garage, and replaced the power booster/master cylinder.
Also re-plumbed fronts and main line to the back. Did not replace any components in back.
Bleeding again, I had a good flow of fluid out of all four bleeders. But, the locking caliper was back. Found out that the prop valve was stuck in one direction, so I ordered a new one. Back to bleeding and I am getting good flow to the fronts, but nothing to the back. I can get a semi-firm pedal feel, but cant get anything to come out the backs. I have tried a vacumn pump, pump bleeding, nuthin. I need help, suggestions, any thing to steer me in the right direction.
Thanks all
Dave
