Allright. It's 1pm. I'm in kankakee driving my 2001 s10. never had a problem with the truck. always starts, goes, stops, and repeat.
doin about 65mph on the 203rd mile of the day. go to slow down for a turn. the brake pedal is absolutely frozen. no give, no move, no brakes... i down shift till i stop on the side of the road. hop out... i have plenty of brake fluid. well, brake calipers are atleast still on the rotors.. i hope back in to make some phone calls. occasoinally pressing hard on the pedal. starts to give a little... and after a couple of inutes i hear a lot of air being pushed and the pedal functions again... i'm driiving again now, and the brakes appear to work... what the heck is going on and should I head home... 2 hrs away...? it kind of felt like my brake line was passing a kidney stone when it finally starting giving and i heard all the air??? -------------------- game over.
