Thanks to all that responded with possible cures for power brake "shuddering". I received several messages from people that are experiencing the same problem that requested sharing with the rest of the Club.Another possibility is that a brake drum may be out of round. these are old parts-had one like that, replaced it, & no shudder.
Here's a summary:
- A common characteristic for cars that are not driven daily. - Air in the system, bleed brake lines. - Blowback into the master cylinder. - Bad wheel bearing or tie rod ends. - Linkage needs to be adjusted. - Most often suggested remedy...check brake fluid level !!!
Now I need someone to tell me how to get to the master cylinder to check the level. Seems like it would take a contortionist to get to the cap which, of course, is located under the booster "accordion"....how the hell do you get to it ???
Thanks again,
