Brake probs
Fitted all new slave cylinders on the bus last week as I had NOS ones and they had shit themselves and leaked..
Drove it for a few days and everything was great, nice pedal feel ,as I had adjusted the brakes, well on the cruise today I noticed that the pedal got
hard and eventually I had to stop as the brakes were stuck on. on all 4 wheels????
I backed them off and everything was O.K. again, I had fitted a new master cylinder last year but I think it might be knackered and not allowing the
fluid to return and so locking the brakes on .
Anyone have any other ideas.
Cheers
Dave

is the pushrod to long, which wont allow the piston to return home to fully uncover the return port .get them stuck on again then remove the p/rod and
see what happens if nothing release the pressure fitting in the side of the mc and if all is good again then mc is knackered |
