Armand,
It sounds like, you are having , Residual Brake line Pressure .
That is exactly, what my brakes were doing, but got so hard ,you could not
push the Brake Pedal in, at all ,the Pedal got hard and applied the Brakes
and stopped me .
The residual pressure from the P-30 reservoir was causing my problem. I
reinstalled the old OEM Brake Reservoir.
That seemed to happen ,most often, after I released my line lock and the
inrush of Brake Fluid closed the Residual check Valves in the P-30
Reservoir.
