[s-cars] Front Brake calipers not releasing.....Master Cylinder?

[Jim Fleischer]

The part #'s matched up front and rear, and the shape of the pads were 
identical to what I took off.......they fit fine until the first brake pedal 
test.....then they just stay there.  I took the car out again after bleeding 
the whole system, twice......after a very short drive, I checked all the 
corners and it looks like I've got issues at all four calipers, as all the 
rotors were hot......the fronts are just making more noise than the 
rears.....hopefully the master cylinder will do the trick.

thanks for the tip, though....

Jim
