    Is my booster bad?

    Well, I replaced the booster and it solved the problem, The only thing now is the new booster would not adjust out any farther and there is a good bit of travle in the brake pedal before the brakes engage.....

    Is my booster bad?

    the brakes already drag on all 4 corners without adjustment. I have sat the car on jackstands and pumped the brakes and none of the 4 wheels will turn after they're tight, I had to open the bleeder screw and release the presure from the calipers to be able to turn the wheels freely.

    Is my booster bad?

    Thanks for all the suggestions, I am going to replace the caliper hoses with braided steel lines and I ordered the booster from Advance today... We'll see what the cause is very soon I hope! I do believe it is the booster!

    Is my booster bad?

    No, once the pedal gets tight it stays really hard, only moves a very little. The fluid is fine and the breaks have been bleed several times to try to fix the problem. The MC and the front calipers are newly rebuilt (from autozone) less that 2 months ago

    What causes brakes to drag

    Are the dual piston a direct bolt-on? I am going to install SN95 spindles, hubs, calipers and rotors in the near future, also the SN95 rear disk. I have all the parts I just have not installed them yet.

    347 stroker

    The reason that "Some" 347's burn oil is becaust the rings run through the wrist pin opening on the side of the piston allowing oil to get around the rings. There are its made with the ring set higher so that the rings do not pass through this location and will burn no oil!

    What causes brakes to drag

    Actualy it is the opposite, The rears are fine at the moment but the front drag! I re-bled the calipers while they were still locked yesterday and white foam came out and the pedal has gotten much softer! but it seams like they are slowly getting tight again.

    What causes brakes to drag

    I have a 90 LX 2.3, When I bought it I put new calipers (stock) on it and new pads and shoes on all four corners, I have since swaped the master cylinder with a 93 Cobra MC and used Matt Bobbitt's 2-3port conversion kit. Since then the brakes drag on and off, I went out lastnight and the brakes...
