Brake Fluid: Heat Reaction
Hi all:
When my cobra is cooled down, I notice the car rolls easily if I push it. However, if I go on a slow-ish cruise for an hour or so on a hot day (like today, it was in the 90's) I notice that the brakes start to drag on the rotors to a point where I can't push the car like I can when it is cooled down.. My brake lines route near my jet coated headers and I am using racing brake fluid. Anyway, could the brake fluid be expanding and putting pressure on the brake pistons?
Thank you for your time and thought.
