I'd check the hoses. They may have swelled up inside and are now
closed. The high pressure of the pedal pushes fluid in to the
calipers, but the restriction doesn't release the fluid out of the
calipers. You can't see this from the outside.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">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.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">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.<o:p></o:p></p>
