Tire area problem - 7/7/2008 2:45:42 PM    Lady   Posts: 2 Joined: 6/28/2008 Status: offline The back left tire area where the breaks are concealed on my 1994 S10 (automatic) is getting hot. I went to give it a washing today and when I sprayed the back left tire it steamed. Any help on what might be going on? Post #: 1

It will warp.  If its a drum, then it may be over-adjusted. You can just use a brake spoon to crank the adjuster back just a little. _____________________________ In Obama''s new Nation, you pledge with your hand over your crotch instead of your chest.
