I have an 87 GN with 107k miles and stock brake setup. Recently I am losing the power assist on the brakes intermittently. When it happens, the brake light comes on and the power assist fades in and out. When the car is cold the power assist works just fine but after about 15-20 minutes of driving the car the brake light comes on and the power brakes are a coin toss. The longer I drive, the less likely I am to have any power assist at all.
I know that powermaster brakes are notorious for having problems but I have also heard about people having problems with the vacuum conversion. I plan to eventually install an entire aftermarket 4-wheel disc conversion but I can't afford it at the moment. Could anyone point me in the right direction to start diagnosing the exact problem. I can't afford to just throw parts at it.
Thanks,
Bill
