Have had this happen to me before and someone recommended using loctite on the adjuster and it worked great. I believe that Clark has had a few issues with the "master cylinder", there has been a few versions.
Yes, one way to tell if it is a fluid pressure drag is to loosen a brake pipe fitting or a bleeder screw and see if you get a squirt of fluid out and if the drag goes away.
Good call mrfixit- is the brake push rod adjusted correctly?
The master cylinder may be pressurizing the brake system even without pressing the brake petal.
