Well Chas----

I'm sorry if you think I was talking down to him------He obviously doesn't have a handle on the workings of brakes as probably a good percentage of modern day drivers don't.

The Cobra is a high performance car with very basic systems----the obvious thing seen or asked about in these threads are probably 180* from the root cause of the problem.

His braking problem is not caused by the right front locking up, it is probably the only brake doing its job---lets see---he has changed pads, doesn't know for sure if the tires are the same, doesn't know his corner weights, doesn't know how much vacume he has, doesn't know the front/rear, right/left pressure at his calipers, doesn't know if the calipers are the same size right/left or mixed front/rear, hasn't mentioned the type/brand of calipers

what he does know is the tires are the same brand, he has replaced dot 5 with dot 4 fluid,he has ss lines(I assume here he means braided stainless lines to the wheels)

We don't know if this car has always done this( I assume he bought it used or he would be all over the dealer)

Your opinion of Dot 5 brake fluid isn't the same as mine----I would bet that his master cylinder and all the seals in the calipers are junk and need a complete overhaul or replacement.

YOU CANNOT MIX DOT 5 AND DOT 3 / 4 BRAKE FLUID-----YOU CANNOT JUST PUMP SOME OF EITHER THRU TO FLUSH OUT THE SYSTEM.
