Default Re: sticky brakes

My first guess would be the calipers are going bad...but...your brake pedal pushes a rod into the master cylinder to force fluid through the brake lines to the calipers, if you have to pull the pedal back to get them to release them....it sounds like your master cyliner is stay compressed, which would force fluid through all the brake lines, not just the front...so this doesn't make much sense. Make sure your brake booster is connected to a good vacuum source such as the intake. Long story short, I would NOT drive the car until this gets fixed, bring it in and get it checked out. Let us know...
