I am not sure if my brake booster and/or my check valve is bad. I know when I press on the brake, I hear the hissing and my idle goes down. I took off the brake check valve and can fairly easy blow through it both ways. When the check valve is screwed in and I start the car and put my finger over the valve, I do get suction and the car seems to idle higher. Also when I have it all hooked up and start the car, I can punch the booster hose with grips and the idle barely changes, if at all. I know it's a lot of info, but if I am able to avoid buying a booster due to it being good that would be great.
I have a posting on here looking for a brake booster, but I am hoping I only need the check valve. And if that is the case, maybe someone has one they can sell me. Thank you.
