JP -

Are you saying the pedal feel is too firm? That could indicate a problem with the power assist or the vacuum supply required to accomplish such.

Vacuum supply issues could be anything from failing check valve (at back of carb) to leaking hoses or reservoir (latter mounted on rear of left fender splasher).

OR, are you saying that the pedal action delivers too much pressure to the wheels - that the brakes are grabby?
