Slippery when wet
My 94 f350 brake pedal got lower and lower, so I put it in the shop this morning, and they've been working on it all afternoon!
Installed new pads on front, adjusted rear shoes, bled proportioning valve and 3 wheels. One bleeder broke off so bled the line at the fitting. I have watched the front calipers work, -looks normal- but the pedal still pumps up and then leaks down with nominal pressure on the pedal.
So I bought a re-man. (scary huh?) master cyl. Bled everthing again, and the brakes are the same as before any repairs were made!
I had to drive it home (no room inside the shop) and I really nursed it. I pull fairly heavy equipment with this truck and can't with the brakes like this. I could tell that the mechanic ( a good guy) is scratching his head.
Anybody got any idea what to do?
The truck has abs sensors on the rear end, but I didn't see an abs pump.
Thanks,
Chuck
