Brakes to the right also.

I am also experiencing my brakes pulling to the right. What I would like to know is where can I buy a prop valve and what is the best master cylinder for my 89 RS 305 170,000mi?

How do you know it's the prop valve/master cylinder?

It could be a clogged line, freezing caliper, the list goes on.

brake right

Not sure, however after reading some of these threads it appears that it might be the problem. I changed the right side caliper 50,000 miles ago and it helped. But it never was 100%.

If pulling to the right, I would start with a new brake hose on the left. If that doesn't fix it then a new caliper on the left.

Yeah...it really could be a lot of things....read the FAQ. There are a lot more things that are cheaper to replace than a m/c. I'd try those first. If it ends up being your m/c...don't get a reman...get a new one. Remanned m/c have a pretty high failure rate.
