Remote brake booster problem. Tue, 27 April 2004 04:27 Go to previous message
Hello, i'm trying to assist a friend fixing a problem with their brakes.

They have installed a remote brake booster due to space issues (needed to make way for a turbo).

Now when you connect the large vacuum line to the booster, it actually makes it harder to press the peddle down - actually almost impossible. If you disconnect the vacuum line the brakes work but of course are not assisted.

I'm assuming he has got something arse-end about but I have no experience with remote boosters so hoping someone can give me some clues?

From what I can see.. 2 lines come out of the master cylinder, go into a T-piece that joins the lines into 1. This 1 line goes into the remote booster, then 1 line comes out that goes back to a T-piece for the front and rear brakes.

Cheers
Joel
