Okay, it will become glaringly obvious in the words to follow that I aint much of a mechanic...............are we done giggling? Good.
My GN has the S-10 brake cylinders, I don't know if that means anything in reference to this problem.
Lately, my brakes have been acting real funny. They do the exact same thing every time: I step on the brake pedal, it's so stiff that I've got to stand on it to stop that behemoth--then, after a few feet, they soften up and work properly, usually throwing me forward a couple of inches. I obviously haven't been driving the thing on the street, and the other day when changing the oil, I checked my brake fluid level. Although the fluid was fine, the top rubber seal was kind of stuck down in there as if having been sucked down. I put it back in place, trying to get a real good seal when I put the lid back on and took it around the driveway. No improvement. Any suggestions?
