i had to slam on my brakes today
they lost pressure and when i got out of the car brake fuild was dripping from rear driverside wheel i made a sizable puddle under the car at this point i have little o no breaks and the warning light is on. any ideas? i need my car this week. anyone had this problem.

info
open rear 83 camaro w/2.8l v6
drum rear

 

you blew a seal or line. why don't you get under you car or pull the drum and take a look at what you have instead of posting here. it wouldn't be hard to find the problem.

 

i don't mean to be a punk about the issue but the only thing i know about brakes is how to change the front disk pads and various other minor knowledge i just wanted some ideas before i take off anything. sorry foe waisting your time

 

oh yeah i did look its got fluid dripping steadily from the drum

 

From what you've described you've probably blown a wheel cylinder. If you take off the drums, you'll see a metal cylinder mounted right above the axle that has seals on both sides. On older vehicles the rubber seals detiorate and they leak.
