First check the arms that the wheel cyl. pushes on to activate the brakes. They have been known to sieze up on the pivot pin. Second make sure they are set up as close as possible without binding when it warms up at road speeds. Third they can be bled by opening the bleeder screw on the wheel cylinders. There is a static pressure in there so the pedal does not need to be pumped to get the air out. Just wait for the air bubbles to stop and steady oil flow. [Reply]  [No Email]
