effect of brake fluid on pads
I recently had to replace my rear wheel cylinders because one was
leaking and now one of my rear wheels locks up before the other. When
brake pads get wet with brake fluid and are then wiped clean, will
they tend to grab more than the ones on the side that did not get wet
with brake fluid?
Thanks in advance

Yes, true whether it is brake fluid, gear oil or any other
contaminant. You should have replaced the brake shoes.

They can sometimes be cleaned and work right. Our car was just like
that and the one side got cleaned well with spray brake cleaner.
These brakes grab even after the clean.

Pads are pretty cheap, I´ll just replace them and see if the problem
goes away. Thanks for the help.
