#24806, "Drum Brakes........."


          

Ok, I did alot of searching on this. I found a few things, but nothing directly answered what I was trying to figure out.

So, I decided to go out and clean/paint my drum covers. I did the Drivers side, no problem. I turned the car around, and went to start on the passenger side. Ok, I started spinning it so that I could clean it. Then it just suddenly felt like someone hit the brakes. I put my other hand on it and turned really hard and it moved, then it went back to spinning freely. As soon as it got back around to that area, it did the same thing.

I have noticed here lately that when i start to go, I hear a pop from the rear passenger side. I found a post about that. I seen something about a warped rotor. But I didn't see if that was the actual problem or not.

So, does it sound like a warped rotor, or could the pad be in wrong, or could it be the ebrake being adjusted wrong.

I have a 97' RS.

Thanks
