resistance or dragging??

PostPost by: dgym » Sat Jun 14, 2014 6:07 am

Hi again all,
when I drive, If i lift off the throttle, It feels as though the car is slowing a lot quicker than it should. As in not rolling freely.
I'm quite sure it's not the brakes as with the car out of gear it moves along no worries.
Perhaps I am imagining it? but It just doesn't seem right.

Has anyone else experienced this? Still not sure if it's all in my head.

perhaps the springs on the carbs are a bit aggressive or... I dunno.

cheers!
Jim

I should mention that I have actually had a problem with stuck brakes, which I appear to have resolved by re mounting the servo correctly. (it was upside down)
This appears to be unrelated to the brakes or handbrake.
