Hello!
I have a problem locating the "rotating adjustment screw" in the pedal linkage. Does anyone have a picture of this screw, it would help me a lot!

Thanks!

Jouni

Yes, in the first paragraph there is the method how to do it, but is the adjusting screw is the same location as the screwdriver is in the fig.46? The symptoms are slow pressure release, and pulsing pedal. The main problem is that right side front drum, it drags even when he shoes are adjusted very far. I belive the pressure wont release the shoes after the pedel has been pushed. All the brake stuff is new (but not sure if poor quality..).
Thanks!

Check at first that the piston rod between the pedal and the master cylinder is fully released. Sometimes the master cylinder piston can be pressed in a bit
although you feel a "false" free play .
