Ric, if you don't find any evidence of brake dragging with your foot off the
pedal, then you may have a bad tire. If a tire develops a separation in the
sidewall or tread, it can affect the rolling resistance of the tire and
cause a pull to that side. If you switch the tires from left to right,
etc., and the tire is the problem, the car will now pull in the opposite
direction.

Subject: [Healeys] Slight pull to the right
Hello listers,
My BJ8 has developed a slight pull to the right. Tire pressures are correct
and there is no noticeable pull when braking. Not a dramatic pull, just
isn't quite tracking correctly. Advice as to where to begin?
Thanks
Ric
'65 BJ8
