Well,
I just found another "left over" problem from the previous assembly that was done before I got my car. Though my car wasn't streetable when I got it, the brake system had been installed and appeared to be ok. I have always had a "growl" noise up front when backing up but it would go away and the brake seemed ok. Well, this weekend I finally got around to checking out the cause of this noise and found that the fronts were actually staying engaged after the peddle was released. My investigation on a number of sites provided some useful info on brake systems. ( the best info came from
http://www.911brakes.com which has good design and troubleshooting info)). My system is Ford type (Mustang) dual master, this master was designed for Drum type brakes and there is a residual 10lb. left on the system after the pedal is released (the source of my drag. I also found that the cylinder was plumbed incorrectly (master rear to front system and front to rear) So I need to re-plumb my lines and get a Ford type Disc brake master .
take care,
Mike
