This is a problem that has been small but is getting worse. Today's story I left my appartment and got on the freeway. I started getting pretty scary shakes in the steering wheel. I arrived at my first destination, did some shopping and got onto another freeway to head towards another store, no shaking until I stopped at a light for a while. When I started moving again, shake city. Did more shopping, got on the road towarda another store, no shaking until I hit another light. After I was done with the third store I decided to only use the hand brake until I got on the freeway again. I made it all the way home without any shakes. I had Jim Adney rebuild my brake calipers and have put them in. Is it possible that there is some crud in the brake lines that acts as slighly leaky check valve, preventing the calipers from completly disengaging. Some other possibly relevant symptoms: It pulls to the right when braking. When I bled the brakes after reinstalling the cipers the fluid coming out of the right one was very foamy, and I had to pump quite a bit to get it coming out clear.
