You could also have a rubber brake line that is deteriorating and acts like a one-way valve. I had this same thing happen to my F250 a couple of years ago. When the brake fluid is pushed to the piston, a restriction in the rubber line will not allow the fluid to come back to the master cylinder. One little clue that might point to this is that the wheel turns freely after it sets a few hours.
Just something to check out.
I like this idea as I've had deteriorated/soft rubber brake hoses cause a soft pedal feel & a pulsing pedal, but don't remember one causing a line block that prevented a caliper piston push back, but I can imagine it could happen. Anyway its a interesting thought & worth exploring further. Let us know what you find.
Yup I agree, on a reman we really don't know what we're getting. Anyway good to hear you believe you finally got things put right & are on the road again & thanks for closing out your thread.!!
