Good to see you working on the Truck T, one plus one negative. Might be worth a mechanic looking at it. Maybe a pipe is collapsing? Hope to see you soon mate

Hi @123hotchef when the truck is running and you brake the pedal goes down and brakes fade really bad, takes a distance to stop very dangerous. I have checked the hoses as you can see several times. When i rigged up the guage in line next to the servo and got Enzo to depress the brake pedal a few times with the truck running the vacume went down to zero and pedal goes down to floor slowly, with the truck switched off the pedal remains under pressure and doesn't sink to the floor. It leads me to think servo but can the one i changed be as bad as the one i had?

Hi Al, going scrap yard weekend to get a vacuum hose of a van or car and try it out for now, Mitsubishi dealer takes 21days to get the part but I need it for May weekend. Hope I get my lift kit delivered Monday so I can put that on too😊.

If I recall rightly,some fords used to suffer with a similar problem but the pedal was rock hard to press
It turned out the plastic servo pipe vibrated and rubbed a small hole in its self from being attached to the bulk head
I may be wrong it could of been a monttego

Il check around scrapers Saturday morning, all I need is a vac hose with a valve and if it's that source one from an L200 dismantler.

They would have just sat in your garage!

They look much more at home on Antonio's truck than your garage floor!
