Aihe: [Alpines] brake problem
Happy New Year to all:
I picked up my 67 Alpine from a friend who finished off the wiring and
interior. Looks great, just about finished, one or two problems that
can
wait for spring. One that can't, however, is a brake problem I
encountered
on my way home. After about 15 miles, I found that when I clutched to
shift, the car slowed down! I then noticed when on a hill with no hand
brake and in neutral, the car would not roll. I pulled over and think I
saw
smoke from the passenger rear brake; I could be wrong. However, with
the
car off, the brake lights were on. After about 20 minutes the brake
lights
went off and the car rolled again. I drove about 3 miles home and
parked
it.
I know how to wring out the braking system, but before I start, are
there
any usual suspects? Does this sound familiar to anyone?
Thanks in advance,
Bill Mounce
