I have a vaccum issue and i think that i have it tracked to the brake booster. The check valve is good and the lines are good. I took the line off of the check valve and blew into the booster and i wont hold preasure, i suck in air and it wont hold it. I can hear the air leaking out it sounds like it is a pretty bad leak. Am i right to say that the booster is gone? Thanks

plug the line between the check valve and the booster and see if it fixes your problem....if so then yes. the booster is leaking

Im pretty sure your booster is bad. It should hold vacuum even after the car is turned off, and since your blowing through it and hear a leak that is no good.

I took the line off of the booster and plugged it but it didn't do anyhting to help my vaccum levels, i have a new booster on order and i am going to have to start tracking down the other leaks. IT is terrible.
