Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

3 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

  • Pelican Parts: 1 discussions

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 1 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Went to the track car ran fine unloaded it went for a drive and with in a 15 to 20 min front brakes would slowly lock up. I pulled the brake booster valve the car would roll again. Change booster and master still the same. I pulled the and fuse, same. I then tried to adjust the push rod To soften thinking not retracing back far enough, same. Car has steelbraded brake lines the one that are plastic coated and are in good shape. Any ideas?
