Subject:      Brakes Stuck.
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1

Hello. I spent some time playing around with my bus today, it starts and
runs. I drove it around the block about 2 weeks ago and it ran as expected,
but now the brakes are stuck. If i go to disingage the hand brake i still
have the red brake light on, and the car won't move very well at all. I've
worked the lever, but the brakes seem to be stuck. Is this an expected
occurrance? Is there an accepted procedure for freeing up what i assume to
be the rear drums?
Thanks again.
