This is on my Mercury.
When braking, I have good pressure but, it doesn't feel like anything bites right away. Maybe I'm just not used to the brakes on such an old car but, it doesn't seem right.
No matter the speed, if I hit the brake there's very little grab and then as I keep pressing down there's all in a sudden the cut lurches because there's all this braking going on. I've tried bleeding myself and there seems to be no air inside the lines. Is a drum adjustment issue? I did a "panic" stop in my garage and the front discs lock up like I'd expect but it took a second. Drums did not lock up. However, on worn asphalt on my street, the passenger rear drum locks up before anything else.
What is the deal?
