Brake question
My braks seem a little soft. The peddle is firm but I have to press harder than I think I should. and they never lock up. Is this normal. Part of anti lock system or is there a problem. I have new shoes and rotors. Made no difference. Car stops just does not feel normal. 94 coupe. thanks tbmoore@cableone.net

Re: Brake question (ittlfly)
Yes I have bleed the best I can. and I have not seen any leaks or air in system.. It has been like this since I got it about a year ago. Have looked for vacuum leaks but so far not found any.

Re: Brake question (tbmoore)
My 93 is suffering the same problems. I have bled it out each time I have changed fluid, changed calipers (J55 upgrade), new pads, Earls lines and no change. I can only guess that the MC is on it's way south. Figure I just live with it until it really dies or starts leaking.

Re: Brake question (Goody)
I lean more toward booster or vacuum leak. Pedal is real firm and stays that way. Just takes a lot of pressure to stop and never really locks the breaks. Still not sure.
