hydraulic brake booster question
I bought a truck, brake pedal that had long pedal travel, and I had to put much effort to get it to brake. The calipers are in good shape and are not stuck, which I had thought at first when I test drove it.
It is a diesel with hydro boost. Now the engine is out and it is about to be replaced but I need to buy brake parts now.
Question; do I have to replace the booster?/master? the master reservoir had very little brake fluid in the rear little hole. Booster doesn't leak but is a little wet around the piston inside the truck.
Should I repair it with a new valve repair kit or should I just flush the booster with new power steering fluid ( yes it is almost brown)? Or should I buy the remastered booster and master all together?
