    Its sitting next to an Abrams tank in one episode. I got screen time in another, the last one I worked. Someone here got a screenshot of it. My Caprice got a flash on that episode too.

    I've been driving the car since I got back. The clutch is set in now. I took apart the carb and cleaned it out cause it had six month old gas in it. The brake pedal is slow to come back for some reason. I noticed grease on one of the rotors too. Weird. I'll grease up the pedal shaft where it swivels, then investigate the power booster/master cylinder.

    After driving it to work this morning, I'm pretty sure the problem is the CPP booster. The amount of boost varies from good to none.

    Is it grease on the rotor or dirty/greasy brake fluid? With your description, it sounds to me that you have a a leaky seal on the caliper.

    Its just a spot about the size and shape of the pad. I went looking for leaks because of this. No sign. Maybe just from the car sitting unmoved for six months left it.
