It will be real interesting to see what the real problem is with these
brakes. Sorry, I lost the original message and am replying to a reply.
The MGA has a simple set up for the parking brake, a lever in the wheel
cylinder that pushes the piston to lock the wheel. The hydraulics are
behine this lever. If I were a betting person, my money would be at
the
wheel cylinder not the master cylinder and most probably the parking
brake lever fails to release.

break when you yank on the e-brake. I don't think I have ever not done this,
but that is what he says causes it.
