front brakes sticking
hey i have a 1991 firebird (with a 305 if it matters)which the front brakes are sticking. I put new calipers and shoes on and the rotors are fine. i can drive and the brakes with release after awhile but once i hit the brakes it seems like the calipers are not letting go...so if any one has any ideals it would help me out a lot. oh yeah the car has been sitting for awhile before i bought it...
