Brakes problem
1989 Dodge Truck 6 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic

when to town and the brakes totaly went out today and when I got home and let the truck cool down the brakes were back also when the brakes went out the front driver side wheel was smoking and smelled like brakes but I took the wheel off and no leaks or problems at all. The brakes have fluid and no leaks to be seen so. Help please!

Jack it up again and try to see if the brakes are grabbing, if not I would check and make sure the master cylinder isnt overfilled. If thats it check the adjustment of the pushrod it could be blocking off the vent ports causing the fluid to heat up and expand, applying the brakes.
