Brake booster/MC problem
I've driven my truck around the block and notice that there is brake fluid coming from between the master cylinder and the booster. Is there suppose to be a gasket between the two. What kind of problem does this indicate? Push rod adjusted to much?

Re: Brake booster/MC problem
Sounds like your MC has a leaking seal. Check fluid levels. Either rebuild or replace.

Re: Brake booster/MC problem
No fluid should come out the back ,the piston seals are worn.
