Odds are if you are loosing brake fluid, your booster is
shot and sucking the fluid into the vacuum can. It will
continue sucking the fluid until the can is so full that
when you release the brake pedal, the engine vacuum
will suck the fluid into the intake. The when you step
on the gas, the car behind you will disappear in white
smoke. Great for escaping evil KAOS agents.
When rebuilding the booster, remember that the
vacuum can is full of fluid. Shake the unit when its off
and you will hear it slosh around. Loosen but dont
remove the screws (because the piston spring is
very strong) and let the luid drain out.
Remember brake fluid is a GREAT PAINT REMOVER.
Buy a rebuild kit, follow the instructions to the letter
and you should be on the road again.
