Thread: Sticky Brake!

Right front brake started smoking and stinking. I'd drive to visit mom, it would get hot as heck, when done visiting mom, it would be OK till I used the brakes again. I've replaced the caliper on that side already, and this is still happening. Very strange. I replace the rubber brake line and it's good. I've never had a rubber line cause issues like this. I guess it was just too old. Funny thing is, I was able to blow compressed air out that hose both ways, but when it was used for a brake line, it would stick up the caliper (not release pressure). weird I tell you, but seems good to go now with the new line. yay, another mystery solved.

Are you sure you didn’t put SlabSauce in the brake fluid reservoir by mistake?
