Re: Brake problem

UPDATE: I replaced the rear brake cylinders last night and that helped a little but didn't really solve the problem.

wrt to the troubleshooting link I sent, I fail Test 1 of the booster test, but not the others.

Any progress on yours?

I had a friend check it out today and, he thinks it might not have enough vacuum. In the next couple days I'll borrow a vacuum tester and find out. If that's the problem, I guess I'll have to decide if I'll go with a vacuum pump or a vacuum manifold.

Re: Brake problem

Is your booster a single or dual diaphram booster?
