Well..its looking like in addition to the Olds I'm going to end up with my old AHB back. Since this is the case, I'm going to finally try to figure out the brake issue.
Currently, it has next to no pressure when bleeding the rears, either side. Also, it feels like the brakes drag more and more the longer I drive it. At this point, I cannot remember when the problem started.
It has all new lines all the way around (3/16"), new hoses, calipers were replaced about 8 years ago, new drums, k car booster and master cylinder, new proportioning valve/dist. block (I know its not related to this as it was the reason for the new block)
In working on the Olds, I've thought maybe the line running to the rear needs to be bigger..similarly to how it is on the Olds. Hydraulics (I would think) would be the same. I also wondered if maybe the issue was the k car booster. More specifically the pushrod length not being correct.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks.
