Recently saw a message posted about a Dodge 600 with brake problems and thought one of you guys might have an answer to my question.
I have a 1974 Dodge 600 with remote mounted single stage MC and booster. My problem is that the brake pedal will seem to lock (become solid, no motion)intermitently as though I have lost vacuum to the booster (like what happens on a P/B passenger car with the motor off) and when this happens I have no brakes. As well, you may have to pump the pedal a couple of times to get the truck to stop. We have bled the system over and over, replaced the wheel cyls, master cyl on the firewall as well as the mc/booster combo under the truck. I am not familiar with this system and cannot seem to find any info on the system. I am also confused about the vent pipe off the remote mc which goes to a muffler or what looks like a air filter under the drivers seat. Any info would be greatly appreciated.
