[6pack] New Master Cylinder locking up

[Richard]

Slone---either the tipping valve doesn't reseat after applying the brake, or the rod in the booster is extending too far. (It's supposed to be adjustable) Either of the two can  stop the brake pads from retracting. 
Lastly, if the caliper pistons stick and don't return, that can happen if replaced and not prelubed. The hunt is on!

First time when I backed off the nuts between it and the booster it freed up, but the second time I had to back off the line to the front brakes and when it bled a bit, they freed up. I had noticed the front brakes were smoking when I stopped.
