The culpert is setting up...none use
Ollie
I will be checking it over
more when I get time. For now it's safely in the garage. The MC is the most likely culpret if there's a
leak. All of my hoses and wheel cylinders are less than 5 years old.
Not that they can't be the problem - but the MC is original and most likely the
source.
Thanks for the responses
everyone.

can leak at ANY connection between lines (rubber to metal lines) it can leak at
each wheel cylinder from the cylinder to the line, cylinder to the bleeder
valve, inside the drum...cylinders can leak and weep removing of a dust cup
usually confirms this as fluid traces will be in there still and/or shoes will
be dark in color....wet looking as the fluid very slowly leaked out on to
them. Take a flash light, look at the tires from underneath the car, if
you see marks that look like runs...like water has run down the tires and left a
little "water" marks this is also a sign that wheel cylinders are leaking.
It leaked out somewhere...most likely the wheel cylinders or M/C.
Very common in old cars that sit a lot. They may seem to work fine
now....But when what ever is failing goes....your SOL....No brakes, no way to
stop it....and crunch....I had mine fail like that when I was about 20 years old
(on a 62 Newport of course) and nearly sent 4 people to go back to see god (they
just got out of church) It's not fun when the wheel cylinder pop open as the
brake shoe lining comes off the brake shoes because they have been weeping off
and on loosening the glue that holds them on.
I'd investigate very carefully until I found the problem.
