Mobious9 Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 Setting the stage: Hey guys, I got my hands on a near mint 83 NA 5spd coupe that had been sitting for about 2 years. I was told the car had a blown head gasket, but i managed to get to car to start up and run fine. The problem: the break pedal wont budge an inch. I can press it as had as i can but it wont budge AT ALL. There is fluid in the revisor and i even tried when the car was running just in case but nothing. Question: Could it be the break booster it gone? im not sure the breaks could be locked up because i rolled it back to my apartment on campus. Anyone have any good ideas? Thanks alot!

macambra Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 Calipers or the master cylinder are probably rusted beyond repair. Be wary of the lines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tec280zx Posted April 29, 2011 Share Posted April 29, 2011 Maybe try cracking open the bleeders on each caliper to see if you can bleed them. Try bench bleeding the master cylinder first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
