[TR] TR6 Brakes

[Ron Olds]

Hello Everyone.

I finally had a chance to take the TR6 out last Sunday.  I had an issue with the brakes.  The front brakes locked up.  Each time I applied the brake they just locked up tighter. I haven't had much of a chance to trouble shoot the problem but it appears that the brake fluid is not returning back into the reservoir.  I did crack the line at the master cylinder for the front and the pressure differential valve.  Some fluid started to come out of each one but I closed them both quickly after a few drops.  Didn't make a difference, could be because I didn't let enough out.

Before I tear the entire system down any suggestions as to what the problem could be?  This might be an opportunity to rebuild the system and replace the fluid with silicone  and rebuild everything.
