First the essentials
WJ booster
WJ master cylinder
ZJ proportion valve
WJ front brake akebono calipers
Crown Vic rear discs
Brakes have been set up for about 1000 miles and the problem just started
Rear brakes release normally when brakes are released
Front brakes hang up to the point I cannot turn the wheels by hand, of I put a breaker bar I can turn them.
I know I need to replace the booster soon as it has a whistle when brakes (damn junk yard parts) are not depressed. I tried unscrewing a bleeder to see if that would release pressure, but nothing. I removed a caliper and compressed it with a c-clamp, reinstalled. After depressing the brake I found it was dragging again. So I believe it is the proportion valve not allowing back flow. My search yielded a few questions, but no answers.
Thanks
