Recommended Posts

cruisin in the freeway 

suddenly stopped 

 

the pedal was stuck but they popped back up 

 

now its stiff and it starts whistling

and its pretty difficult to stop

 

the pressure increased dramatically 

 

im not sure if it effected the idle before but it seems so now

i apply the brake and it changes

 

so, do brakes cause the idle to change when parked?

 

i know the rotors are messed up

 could that be it?

Brake booster vacuum leak, my guess.

 

 

Normal operation:

Pump brakes several times to vent any vacuum. Push down on brake pedal normally and hold. Turn motor on. Pedal should drop slightly.

 

 

 

 

Go listen around the master cylinder while someone pumps the brake with the motor running. Hear any hissing?
