Sticky calipers

["Rodney Broussard" <rodneybroussard@hotmail.com>]

Somebody please help me!!!!   Back in July 96 I bought a Dodge Ram 
Sport, and somewhat abandoned my Pearl 87 5kcstq, (I'm sorry, I'm 
sorry).  Well, it's been parked under a tree in Georgia for about a year 
now with an occasional blast aroun the block now and then.  It needs a 
new rack and some struts, (imagine that!)  I really miss driving this 
car.  A few months ago I jump started it and took it for a nice blast on 
some country roads, but to my surprise my front left caliper began to 
bind. It's fine for a while, but then it won't let go if I brake after 
about 20 min. of driving.  It doesn't apply full braking force as I can 
still drive it, but not without that terrible smell of baked brake pad 
and higher rpm's.  My brake fluid and Pentosin levels are fine, however 
I will get a "brake" light if I stand on the pedal at idle.
Does anyone have any suggestions on why this may be?
