I am going to try some more things in the morning. I didn't have much time today. Thanks a lot for the advice. The brakes, although I'm pressing them pretty hard, don't really have that much strength to them at all. Maybe, I just need to press harder. There definitely is a vacuum. I need to look up what is involved with this procedure. I have never dealt with brakes before. Do I just unbolt the master cylinder and the booster from the firewall, then, just replace with the new unit? Take care-

Thanks, I ran out of light tonight. I checked the main large hose and didn't see anything. I'll just need to investigate in the morning. Thanks for the advice

ok, I figured it out. Does anyone know the best place to buy this part online?

the brake booster is the black cylinder that says "master vac"?

Hello all, This is my first post. I have been reading articles on here for awhile now and think this is a wonderful site. I just bought my first Z a couple of weeks ago. It is a 1971 240 with an L6 engine. I was coming home tonight and lost most of my brakes. When I press on the pedal, even slightly, I hear a hiss. Also, the rpm shoots up about 500. I did a search and a couple others in the last four years have had the same problem. In their posts there are no solutions. Thanks for all replies!!! SavannahZ
