Re: Hard Brakes, Car barely moves on acceleration
It sounds to me like the issue is unlikely due to the recent brake job and more likely due to an engine issue that is causing the engine to either misfire or idle issue and the vacuum is getting so low that the power assist to the brakes is dropping. The brake power assist is provided by engine vacuum.
