Hi ...replaced the shoes and the left rear wheel cylinder on my mga.
As I do mileage on the car, it seems to get tighter to the point that the brake is dragging. When I stop, the drum is rally hot, whereas on the right side, just slightly warm...I jacked the car up this AM, to check the adjustment, and the wheel spun freely, (a lot of brake dust) still took a notch or two to relax it, but, it just seems to appear that the brake goes on, and does not release enough under driving conditions...(it does not lock up, and in fact do not feel it under normal driving conditions...so it must be dragging just every so slightly..)
Any ideas...
thanks
