    My ABS PUMP did not release the pressure on the line, we are not talking about increase pressure we are talking about releasing pressure. That is one of the steps you listed above releasing pressure. Why do my brakes work know that we have the new ABS pump in the car.

    No quick spurt just un-pressured dribble. What I meant to say is that the car pulls to the left as if the right brakes are not working. But the right side is diffentley dragging. Thank You.
