brake booster double check
Took the 85 k10 out last night to meet my wife and drove about 60 miles pulled in the driveway and lose my power brakes i'm thinking the booster whent out you can here a hissing or air when the petal is pushed while the engine is running. So i guess i'm just double checking myself if it is the booster. ( i have been wanting to detail the engine some maybe will start that now while i'm in there maybe it won't snowball) btw. it's a 350 truck now, factory had a 305

Re: brake booster double check
Hub, if ya hear a rather loud hissing in the cab with the engine on and it stops when you turn it off the booster is toast, replace it. When you do replace it, there is a pin behind the master cyl sticking out of the exact center of a black plastic piece behind the master cyl, DO NOT LOOSE THAT PIN!!! Your going to need it on the new booster. jim
