I have an 84 f-150 and today the brakes started sticking real bad once it warms up. Too bad to drive. Way to bad. I took it up to the garage (before it warmed up) The guy there says it has oil in with the brake fluid and it is eating all the rubber. He says they can try to flush it with denatured alcohal ($100 no guarantee) or replace every rubber part in the brake system. (wheel cylinders, master cylinder, proportioning valve, rubber hoses) I had a new master cylinder put in about 3 weeks ago. (diferent garage) Could they have mixed oil in somehow? And if so will it really eat all the rubber? should i try the alcohal flush or just replace the whole system? thanks for the advice!
