| FAQ_Q1 | What does a Brake booster do? |
| FAA_A1 | A brake booster assists in pushing the master cylinder piston when the brakes are applied. This multiplies pedal force to decrease stopping distances. |
| FAQ_Q2 | How much vacuum does a brake booster need? |
| FAA_A2 | For proper functionality, a brake booster will need a consistent supply of 18-21 inches of vacuum. |
| FAQ_Q3 | How can I test my brake booster for proper functionality? |
| FAA_A3 | With the engine off, pump the brake pedal until it feels firm and hold. Then, start the engine and the pedal will sink slightly if the booster is operating properly. |
| FAQ_Q4 | What causes multiple booster failure? |
| FAA_A4 | Fuel and oil vapors can enter the vehicle's PCV system. These vapors will prematurely deteriorate the brake booster's internal diaphragm. |
| FAQ_Q5 | Why do my brake lights remain illuminated after installing my replacement brake booster? |
| FAA_A5 | After replacing a brake booster, it may be necessary to adjust the brake light switch. Some vehicles contain a one-time use brake light switch. In these cases, the brake light switch will need to be replaced. |
| FAQ_Q6 | Can I use a brake booster from a different application? |
