I hoped the vacuum gauge would be more stable at more then 10hg with this reservoir, but maybe the gauge pickup is on the motor side, not the brake side. I have an expensive Hella electric vacuum pump but was hoping to avoid installing it as a solution.

I added the same one...didn’t really make stopping much different. She stops, but not like I have power brakes. Took it off since it didn’t make a difference
