Master Brake Cylinder Problem
One of those times when you go to fix one problem and find another...
So I pulled my brake booster to replace the ECM bracket. When I button everything back up the brake pedal won't depress. I pull the master cylinder and the booster works fine but I can't push in the piston.
Is it possible to have cocked the piston(s) in the bore by not tightening the two nuts down at the same time?
I can't image anything that would cause so much brake pressure that you can't push in the piston.
