car pulls strong to left when braking
well i noticed my car pulls to the right when driving normally and pulls strong to the left when braking. so when i checked things out, as soon as i got the front of the car up in the air, i noticed the drivers side tire spun fairly freely but the passenger side was really tight, i could turn it but not near as easily as the other side. so i took the wheel off and took the pins out of the caliper and cleaned them up, then i took the caliper off and i filed some of the rust off of the places that the caliper rides on (just normal rust, nuthing bad).
then i went to put it back together, i compressed the cylinder in the caliper to make putting it back on easier and i noticed that the brake fluid didnt rise at all in the reservoir. i went ahead and put it back together and its still the same. It seems like the line might be clogged or pinched or something, what do you think?
