Brakes problem
1993 Vauxhall Corsa 4 cyl Front Wheel Drive Manual 90k miles
----------------------------------------------------------------
i have a corsa gsi with a cavalier gsi engine conversion, all the brakes (calipers, discs pads etc) are off a cavalier turbo. when i 1st set off my pedal is a bit spongey with some travel, but if car is left to warm up or a bit of driving, the pedal becomes harder and both fronts and OSR brakes stick on, ive checked for pads being stuck but there free, also check caliper pistons for seizer but theyre ok, all flexi hoses are good too,and the pipe from servo to manifold is ok, would it be a master cyl at fault or servo? cheers
