This from Mitch:
The puzzle is getting better.
Why are my TR6 front brakes seizing when they get warm? Here are
the things I've done to try to alleviate the problem:
-bled the brakes (slight air bubbles)
-used new LMA-GT fluid
-rebuilt front brake calipers
-cleaned pressure differential warning valve
-what else is there????
The really strange thing is that they will loosen with hard
cornering! So here's a scenario: I take off from Livermore in
the morning over highway 84 (windy road) using brakes very
lightly. Less than ten miles down the road, the brakes are
seized and the pedal has zero travel. Then I turn around and
do some hard cornering (like jogging back and forth in the middle
of the road) and they loosen up, but are still soft from the
heat. Bizarre.
Any bites?
