I just bought a 87 n/a and the car had sat up for a few years. Needles to say the brakes are stuck closed. Whenever I shut the car off fluid leaks from the master cylinder. I know that the master cylinder may be the problem but any tip or advice would be appreciated.

 

Is it the emergency brake or all 4 wheels? It may be just the e-brake cable rusted in place.

 

Thanks i'll have to check that out.

 

Bleed the entire system and then check for leaks, but the master cylinder may still need replacing. Also check the e-brake cable to see if it's stuck in place like nopistons said. Good luck with the new ride!

 

yea its going by be my daily driver the way I can save up for the single turbo for my fd.
