The brakes on my 90, when i bought it were non-existent. The master cylinder was gone, so the pedal went straight to the floor.
A restoration project was then decided upon and for the last 4 months i have been doing work on it.
So, i am at that stage where i can see the finish line. The master cylinder has been replaced, (That could be part of the issue). The brakes work really good. unfortunately, after a while the rear brakes (Drums) just start locking up to the point where 3rd can't take the strain.
The drums also feel really warm.
To fix the issue, i have to release fluid from one of the drums. Then, the system rolls freely again. I'm guessing it's a buildup of fluid in the slave cylinders or something.
Can anyone help?
Thanks
