Default 91 accord

I had the clutch replaced in this 91 accord, came back a week ago within 5 minutes of drive time the right side brake locks up. I have bled brakes 3 times with no change. Any help ?

Will it release if you open the bleeder screw?
If it doesn't (and you're talking about a disc caliper, then it's most likely seizing on the caliper slider, or the caliper piston isn't retracting because it's seizing in the caliper bore.

here is what happened now... bled brakes again, backed car out of the shop did not touch the brake and they both locked up in the front. By rocking the car was able to get in out of gear then in to first back into the shop. Im thinking slave cylinder might be low or out plus more...?

Wait. Are we talking about brakes which won't release or a clutch you can't operate. They are entirely separate systems

Well, good question I think now its both. The brake caliper was hot in the begining. The last time it locked both front tires to a skid. I went to put in first gear would not go after rocking it went into gear made what i would call gear to gear nasty noise, same as a power glide with no atf then I shut it off...I am not a honda guy at all drive all american so pretty lost...

sounds like your brake master cylinder or a bad caliper. maybe for your clutch id say slave cylinder or throw out bearing making the noise.

axles snap into the diff with a C clip fixed on the axle's spline. You just need to carefully pry them off the tranny, no clip removal is needed on your part.
