i have a 95 plymouth neon 155,000 miles 1.9 engine does not have abs brakes. the front drivers side disc brake get very hot. so far i have replaced the the caliper twice and cleaned and greased all the bolts slides. i have bleed the brakes after i replace the calipers and everything seem okay. i have noticed that even the new caliper seem slow to let the brake retract when the peddle is released. what could cause this.

Could be a problem with the brake hose acting like a one way check valve or the master cylinder.
