Is this plate supposed to be between my master cylinder & brake booster?
I've been having to press hard on the brakes to stop, just checking every possibility.
I don't remember if it came with the MC or the booster.
Car is rarely driven & my memory is fading.
It's an 84. Thanks
The plate wouldn't change your effort but your peddle hight would. If you're needing to press hard you either have a problem with the booster or it's vacuum supply.
Getting back to the spacer I seem to remember some cars having them, so removing it would probably leave your brake pedal high leaving brakes on.
. you should have around an inch then brakes should apply making a difference and locked up well before the floor
. Will admit that the spacer and the booster are both not factory so spacer might have to do with aftermarket booster
Hey thanks guys.
I took a ride, checked the temperature of each caliper , 3 of them were 90 degrees & the drivers side rear was 160.
So I got it apart but the piston is froze.
Tomorrow I will figure out how to get the piston out, it's probably corroded beyond repair.
Thanks for figuring out the spacer, (aftermarket booster).
