The flexible brake hoses that screw into the calipers are the most neglected part of most brake systems, along with dirty flluid. The flex hoses are probably swollen inside and holding pressure on the calipers. Remove the flex brake hoses and try to blow through them. If you cannot or it is very difficult the hoses are bad.At a minimum I recommend replacing hoses on both sides. As for stuck pistons, try collapsing the calipers. If the pistons won't retract then replace the calipers too.
Check for propper brake fluid on system, somtimes human error can put power steering fluid intead of brake flluid. If this has ocurr, you must bleed all the brakes system. Sammyc47
flow the hose from your ratater to your water pump undo 2 bolts clean and remove the old gasket replace with now one put new thermostat in rebolt not to tight that you will crake it and check flluids and make sure it not leaking ...
Yes you can do that and it will help a lot but before you do that is best if you remove all the old fluid from the vehicle inclusing the oil in the lines
Do you have fluid coming out of your front left brake? This is the other half of the circuit.I think you need to open up the bleeder screw and have a friend depress the brake pedal to the floor slowly and hold it down.Tighten bleeder ,release brake,repeat this till you get fluid.If you don't get flluid after several attempts (6-8).Then it might be the metering and proportioning valve in the master brake cylinder is done and you are going to have to replace the unit.Unless you changed a line ,caliper or wheel cylinder there should be no air in the system. Also check for crushed or pinched brake lines.Good Luck
You should have two plugs on the back of the unit (in most cases) One is higher than the other.(usually they are about 1" in size) High one is fill...remove that one first (if you can't remove it then you can't refill it, so don't remove the lower one) Once fill is free, remove the drain, wait till fluid stops running then replace drain plug and fill till fluid just seeps from the lower edge of the hole (on level ground) Replace the fill nut and you are done!
There are no guarantees when it comes to a rebuilt transmission or anything. They usually have a warranty for the work all depending on the mileage afterwards. Is it over it? Most likely the gaskets need replacing and the bolts tightened again.
