Thanks to all of you who replied to my message last week. I bought the
newer car which turned out to be a 87 L7 (not 86). I could not pass up the
deal ($1500) for a car that was donated to charity. On the way home I
realized why it was donated. When the brakes warm up the front brakes bind
and overheat. I stopped at Firestone an a tech told me that the calipers
need to be replaced. No big deal, I have ordered the parts. As I turned in
bed dreaming of my new L7, I started wondering if the problem was as simple
as calipers. Both front brakes started to bind at the same time. If this
is as simple as a caliper binding, would both sides bind equally? Could it
be related to the ABS system, booster or master cylinder? Thanks and Aloha,
Scott Bly
