Bearing Play I have not checked the bearing play, but i will check it tommorrow. As a side note, the brakes bled easily this time as opposed to before when I got just a trickle of fluid out. I mentioned before that the PO had made a lot of "repairs" that I am now having to go back and...

Update Ok, a quick update. I have had my car torn down for the past month working on the suspension and while I was at it, I re-sealed the rear rotors, replaced the pads, turned the rotors and replaced the hoses. I have great flow now while bleeding the brakes. However, I drove the car to...

Some pressure OK, I disconnected the rear line at the T, before the rubber hoses and there is some fluid flow. Oddly enough, there is suddenly fluid at the calipers too!! I think they are still dragginf some, but i went ahead and ordered new stainless hoses for all four corners. I am about...

Bias Valve I was reading your post and it hit me that I dont have a warning switch installed on the master cylinder. It looks like this monitors the bias valve? Could having it removed cause this problem? I will remove the bias valve today and check it out. I think the Master cylinder was...

Today I disconnected the brake lines at the Master Cylinder and had an assistant press the brake pedal there was excellent flow from bith lines. I also disconnected the rubber hose form the caliper and had an assistant press the brake. The line barely leaked anything, maybe a drop or two...

The parking brake does not work, there is no way that it is sticking. I attempted to bleed the brakes by having someone apply pressure to the pedal while i opened the bleeder. just like i have on every vehicle I have ever serviced brakes on. I have not checked any bearing play or u joints, but...

They are definatley not bleeding with the engine off. I suspect that there is something going on in the ABS module. It seems like they are holding pressure and just real slow to release. if i stop on a slight slope i can feel them release and let the car roll back after a few minutes. Like I...

I forgot to add that part. The parking brake is definately not sticking. In fact, the pads are so worn they won't engage when the handle is pulled!

I just got my '86 a few months back and am in the process of fixing everything that the PO either rigged up or didn't fix on the car (which is a lot!). Anyways, my rear brakes are dragging. I can shift into neutral at like ten mph and the car will come to a complete stop as if the brakes are...
