Power Brake Booster Operations?
« on: July 07, 2011 - 11:58:13 AM »
Regarding the Booster on the brake’s Master Cylinder for our E-bodies;
-   Where does the booster receive its power from?
-- Is there a vacuum hose that connects up to the intake manifold? 
-- If yes, where?

My co-worker and I were discussing the question this morning.  He’s also an automotive enthusiast, but, his toy is a MG Midget, not a Mopar.
I Googled the question, and a vacuum connection  is required.
Thanks
Ron

it connects into the intake manifold , generally into the #7 or 8 runner at the back , if it leaks internally it can cause a vacuum leak cuasing a misfire in the cylinder the runner leads to
