If you have your 13/16” adjustment at the brake peddle and it still locks up the brakes
then; a problem very often encountered when an inexperienced back yard mechanic puts a
kit in the AD master cylinder is to reverse the push rod stop washer on reassembly.
The cylinder still pumps pressure ok but the reversed washer keeps the piston from
clearing the compensating port and releasing the pressure. After a rest of 15-20 minutes
the pressure bleeds down enough so you can drive it again until the brakes are applied
once more. Then the whole stuck brake thing starts all over again.
