[QUOTE="Trikky2, post: 570861, member: 240"] Yes the spring should pull the shoes back. Repeat the test and while the shoes are stuck, try slackening off the bleed valve. If the shoes retract then the problem is hydraulic. If they stay stuck then it's mechanical (either too much friction or Spring too weak). Note : only press the pedal a little just so you can see the shoes move outward. If you press the pedal right down then the cylinder will over extend and the piston will jam in the bore giving the impression it's sticking). [/QUOTE]
