Good Afternoon All
On the newly acquired '65 Newport, there was evidence of a master cylinder leak where the cylinder bolts up to the booster.
I removed the booster today to clean it up and make it pretty again. Once the booster was unbolted and physically out, you could hear liquid sloshing around inside. I removed the check valve and dumped out about 3 or 4 tablespoons of the nastiest black fluid that I have ever encountered. I will ASSUME that it was the accumulation of brake fluid that leaked past the seal.
The booster was still working fine, so my question is do i button it up and reinstall?
Thanks to all who respond.
