Re: [FWDLK] Saratoga Brakes

[JLSAVARD@xxxxxxx]

I have a 1957 Saratoga.  It was acting oddly, like the linkage was sticky.  I oiled it, and even put a second spring on the pedal to pull it back up.

 

I finally found that it was the short flexible rubber line between the master cylinder and the frame, that had swollen closed.  Apparently, this is a notorious condition.  When I replaced it, all the troubles went away.

 

Good Luck, and let us know what you find.
