poor brakes long pedal...sorted ahhhhh

[metalman]

Hi,just a note to all saxo owners with poor brakes.My Saxo brake pedal had loads of travel before braking.Please check rear brake shoe adjusters,these are made up of two parts per side.Anyway....mine had seized solid,therefore they had ceased to adjust the shoes to the drum.This resulted in the long brake pedal travel as the shoe to drum clearance was so great.
Please check these before any more technical fiddling is attempted.
