The parking brake pedal on my 1976 Dart Sport will not stay down when pressed. The pawl on the release lever will not drop on to the teeth on the pedal lever to hold it. I thought rust was keeping it from engaging so I removed the pedal assembly and it is soaking in Evaporust. Is there supposed to be some type of spring that should keep some tension on the pawl until you pull the release lever?
