brake booster
« on: June 21, 2018, 12:52:30 AM »
Hello, I just replace the power booster on my 68 Z and I want to remove the vacume connector and replace it with the born with connector and before I get to aggressive trying to remove it, I need some help in 'how to' do it.

squirt a little WD40 on the rubber and it will be easier to remove.

Hopefully you didn’t put one of the cheap Chinese made boosters on.

I agree! When installing I use a light coat of dawn detergent for lubricant.
