I will try the suggestions on Monday (Momorial Day)
To clarify - The symtom is like it has the hand brake connected to all four wheels, and is applied to the maximum. All four wheels get very hot if I try to push ahead before a complete stop. Whenever it is totally locked, and I try to move, it just burns the clutch and the car just squats.
I will post the results of the suggestions I have already received.

I am experiencing a problem where the brakes lock up after about four to five miles of travel. I was told that the problem could be resolved by replacing the master cylinder. I did, but the problem continues. The only way to get going, is to release the pressure via the bleeding valves. This works sometimes for an eighth of a mile or sometimes up to ten miles. I removed all the relays from the ABS unit with no luck.
Is there someone who has experience this problem? How was it resolved?
