Re: Drum Brake Issues

-
Is there a return spring on the brake pedal? It sounds like the pedal may not be coming back up far enough to release the pressure on the system. Next time it builds up pressure and the brakes start dragging put your left foot under the brake pedal and pull up on it. If that is the problem that should release it.

Another thing you can try is when the brakes are locked up open one bleeder on the front and one bleeder on the back and see if it releases the lock up.

Just some easy things to try.
