Mikester, Is this the T junction you were referring to? (closer to the bottom of the picture) Sorry for the crummy pic.

Thanks for the replies. I will take a pic of the apparatus later today.

Hello everyone, I had the brake conversion done, but now my steering whines. I understand that the conversion kit uses the power steering to operate, so I am wondering if it is a power issue? I've checked the fluid and that's fine. Because of the quarantine, I can't bring the car...

Ahh. Now I feel better. I'm still going to look into that kit, and follow your other recommendations. You've been a great help, Thanks again and Merry Christmas. Justin

The last thing you could go after is to replace the internal seals in the master cylinder. The best kit I've found is available from Karps power brake service. The Karps kit has all the booster seals as well as the actual brake cylinder seals (hard to find!). If the seals are worn, the booster...

Awesome! Thanks a lot BEATAV8! Justin

Hi all. I recently changed my accumulator bowl as well as the pressure switch in my powermaster setup, and since then, I have noticed that the pump runs pretty frequently. I never noticed it run more than once at start up prior to replacing the bowl and switch. I've read through that...

Well that's good news! I will replace both of them, and take some fluid out of the engine side reservoir.

Here's a video of what just happened. Sorry it's sideways. It doesn't sound good. That's the radiator fan turning on when the motor/pump starts struggling. It had never squealed like that until this time.

That flowchart looks very helpful. I am going to go try it now. Thanks.

So my options are pretty limited then. Just buy a rebuilt powermaster unit, or switch to vacuum? I don't think I've even seen just the motor for sale.

I am having a "hard pedal" issue, and trying to diagnose it with those instructions is giving me a migraine. The brake light came on one morning, along with a very difficult to press pedal. After driving it home with the hard braking, there was some fluid leaking from the passenger side of the...

Ha!

Great tip Sam. I'll be sure to do that. Justin

I plan on changing the fuel filter on the car and am wondering if I should just replace the fuel pump and get a hot wire kit while I am doing this. I know the hot wire kit is unanimously recommended, but what If I won't be changing the fuel injectors right away? Is there a downside to this...

Wow, what a tease. Good on you for trying though.

Just to back track a little, should I replace the actuator? Thanks for all the other tips.

Thanks, I had read up on the refubed tachs/turbo gauges, I was just unsure if they could fail independently of each other. I think I'll have it done even after I get the scanmaster hooked up, mainly because that full bar of lights just annoys me.

So what you're saying is take it to a professional. lol. After looking at the forums, there seems to be a shop in Queens pretty close to where I live that specializes in these cars, I probably will take it to them. As much as I am confident in my ability to loosen nuts and bolts, electrical...

Here are some pics. Just some randomly cut wires. This thing is just unplugged altogether. More unplugged. Random Button and Hideous radio Random button and switch. Then there's this. One of the switches lights up if I turn it on. The reverse lights don't come on. The...
