Default Brake Booster Wooes.... Need some Ideas

I replaced the booster on my civic crx about 3months ago, Ive noticed that the brakes are sticking now. I tried to set it similar to my oem one, but I guess it didnt work out.
When you disconnect the booster Vac line, the wheels will release. When connected and the brake is pumped up they start sticking again.

Ive adjusted it all the way out, then in, and nothing has changed. Still sticks
Think its bad? The Check valve is Good. It Hiss's air out when I pull the valve out like its not relasing the pressure.

btw its an autozone part.....

Ive got a really bad wobble also, my rotors are shot. Do you think the brakes sticking to warped rotors would cause a wobble to start around 60-90? occurs w/o braking or throttle.

Your booster is sticking... It will cause you to warp those rotors. Replace it and buy new rotors and pads. You probably damaged the pads by continuous use.
I would believe that it would cause your wobble as well.

Ive never heard of something like this, but it sounds to be my problem.
Is this common ? esp for shitty autozone boosters?
