pitzel Posted June 27, 2014 Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 Changed the fuel pump, now the passenger side parking brake is permanently bound on. Presumably the tank is causing this. Anyone else had this problem when changing the fuel pump? I'm going to loosen the straps up again and take a pry bar and try to pry the tank forward a bit.

Schurkey Posted June 27, 2014 Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 I don't recall the park brake cables being all that close to the tank. I wasn't especially careful about the cables when I dropped the tank in my '92 Lumina. Maybe you've got the dreaded 1st Gen caliper-sticking problem I keep hearing about (but have never experienced.) How often do you actually USE the park brake? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pitzel Posted June 28, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2014 Okay, I'm dumb (again). Turns out when I was working on the tank filler tubes through the wheel well, I moved the e-brake cable aside and it got caught on the frame in a weird way instead of hanging relatively loose around the strut. Fixed that, and all back to normal! Thanks for putting up with my stupidity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
