Hi Gang -
Well, my '60 at last has brakes (sort of) and while it
is great to be able to move the car without the neighbor watching her fence,
there is a slight hic-up in my plans. Even though the brake light switch
has come back to life, one major component has not: The Power Brake
Booster. So this evening I'm curled up with the FSM trying to figure out
how to get it back to life. It is the Oval Metal Type as opposed to the
bellows. It states in the troubleshooting section that loss of power
assist can be caused by the car sitting in storage for a long period of time and
I guess 13 years would qualify.
Does anyone have some suggestions about what to do or
not to do when tearing into one of these units? The FSM gives
some pretty good directions but any additional help would sure be
appreciated.
Thanks,
Jim L. in OR
