Re: Weird brakes



Check the brake fluid level. Remove and inspect the inside of the 
vacuum hose going to the booster for the presence of brake fluid. If 
it keeps happening and the vac hose is dry the master cylinder is 
failing. If the vac hose is wet the booster will have to rebuilt too.
Do not let this go on long as it can get scary if you have to stop in 
a hurry and the pedal falls away from you!

still had adaquate stopping power. I checked around and I do not have 
a coolant leak nor do I have a vacume leak. could this be from 
inconsistancies in the vacume assist or what?
