    Brake booster troubles.

    So I've got this thing that's been going on. If you gently rest your foot on the brake pedal, it'll pulsate (like it's building up boost and then losing it.) This is at a stop, not stopping. No, it's not my rotors. I was thinking that it may be that I don't have the vaccuum catch can on the fender anymore. Just straight line from the intake to the booster. My master is also the stock one, while my booster is an 02 JY piece.

    I have a brand new 02 master that I just bought. Was thinking I should put that on.. But it doesn't have the rod, so I'd have to use the 85' one.

    This car will not be seeing rear disks or big brakes in the front. It's cobbled together but more or less a stock setup.

    That is how you're supposed to jack it.

    Up and down.

    The vac can is just for climate control stuff.

    If the check valve where the hose connects to the booster is not checking, it might do this. Weak vacuum or a leak might cause it too. I had problems with the grommet around that check valve leaking on mine.

      I wonder if it has anything to do with burnouts/brake stands.
