Brake booster replacement--this is easy, right?
I finally bought a new one. I think all I have to do is unbolt the old one from the firewall and the master cylinder and bolt the new one on...right?! If not, where can I find good on-line instructions?
Thanks much!!

There have been a number of posts on this - check the archives for detailed instructions, but for a quickie - unbolt MC and pull it out of the way (you do not have to disconnect), dissconnect vacuum line to BB, remove front seat, remove sound panel under steering wheel, remove metal insert under steering wheel, find and remove clip from BB to pedal (carefully) with as many small sockets, universals and extension as you need, remove and don't lose the 2 nuts holding the BB to the firewall, as you pull the BB from the engins side, remove the push bar from the brake pedal. Reverse proceedure to install. Try to do this without cussing, throwing things or loosing the nuts (I am still looking for 1 that dropped a year ago), Be a contortionist, be able to work up-side-down, have patience and it goes in ok. should take about 2-3 hours - GOOD LUCK
