Hopefully these help to determine what type booster this is. if not, I can get some more when I get home from work.

hello everyone. I have a 68 Valiant and the previous owner converted the front brakes to power disc. Now we have a leaking Booster, but I can't tell who the manufacturer is for the master and booster assy. Is there a way to tell if it's Bendix, Kelsey, or Budd? Or even more, does it matter which...

Replace The cap or the whole MC?

Bill, If the reservior is leaking from the cover, should I replace the cover or just buy the whole MC and replace it?

Halifaxhop, Those with thin skin shouldn't be working on old cars anyways!!!! No worries.

YY1, That's where it looks like most of the fluid is accumulating. But I still want to check the vacuum like halifaxhops suggests. Thanks for replying. The pedal seems kind of stiff still. It was parked for a while and when we first started working on it, the pedal would stick. So we would pull...

You're referring to the Power booster side of the vacuum line which is the hose that goes from the booster to the manifold correct?

If that is the case, what fixes it?

What causes them to leak at just over 7 years? I'm not sure if it matters, but it has disc brakes on the front and drums on the rear.

I have a 68 Valiant with power brakes and I am wondering what common cause of fluid leaks? I see fluid is on the bottom of the MC when I look at it, But i can't see where the fluid is coming from. If I have to, how hard is it to replace the MC on the car? I have included a picture. My son had...

A C clamp with one of the old pads works fine too. You just need to unbolt the cylinder from it's mount. That way you are not pushing more on one side of the piston than the other.

I was referring to the master cylinder and it's bolted onto the brake booster. I thought there maybe a seal there. But maybe I'm wrong.

WHats the easiest way to bleed the lines on a 68 valiant with front disc brakes?

We had the master cylinder replaced about 7 years ago on this 68 valiant. How hard is it to replace the seal between the master cylinder and the diaphragm that fits in the wall of the car?

It's not bad. I mean it doesn't take much pressure from my foot to pull it back up. I had the brakes done a few years ago. They replaced the master cylinder at that time. So I'm hoping it is just pivot point stiffness.

I will check that. Thanks. makes too much sense. : )

I have a 68 Plymouth Valiant with a slant 6 in it. I notice since the car has been sitting for a year or so that now when I push on the brake pedal, the brake pedal sticks and I can put my foot behind it and release it. The brakes do work and the pedal doesn't go to the floor. So I don't think...

Riverside County. Actually Murrieta, CA.

Yeah. The fluid is clean and looks fine. Not brand new, but it isn't bad.

I have a 2 door valiant with a slant6 and auto trans. It has a disk brake conversion on the front and drum brakes on the rear. I notice when I step on the brakes pedal, the brake pedal sticks and I have to put my foot behind it to make it come back up. What should I look at for issues? Here...
