LC 1971 1600 ohc
We replaced servo (aka booster) and master cylinder, the original booster was leakin air noteably from the back where rubber sleeve is. This original booster also had about 2 cups of break fluid inside of it, which hubby pored all over my feet.
the original master cylinder hubby reckons one of the valves was stuck. So both (second hand) r on, brakes bled and nothing at all. It was better B4, you could at least pump the brake a couple of times and it lightly grabbed. Scarey stuff.
so one question i have is does the booster need to charge itself???
oh also when i put foot on brake when car was cold revs dropped. once car was warmed up revs lifted. this car has not been tuned yet.
NEXT
rear wiring
we have both indicators on side panels working. rear indicator drivers side working only. the connector in the middle of wiring loom to passenger side rear indicator was flatish, so i removed wire to correct the way it was sittin, well pickle me grandmother the damn connector broke. dont ya just luv this shit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! hubby is gunna spot weld it so it should be fine but this indicator wasnt working before, but the side panel one was.
brake lights and tail lights. if the tail lights r on and u p ut ya foot on brake then the tail lights go off, the globes r double filament. i just went to check this was still right and now theres no tail lights, brake lights at all.
we have gone over wiring with diagram in book and all is as it should be. fuses r ok.
we did at one stage have tail lights and brakes as i said before, but it seems this is a self destructing gremlin with no respect.
HELP!!!!!!!!!!! BLAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
