I've run about 4 quarts through it (to date...)(with a pressure bleeder), and it still does not make me happy. I've got no Idea how it could be the booster, I was just throwing it out for discussion... :). I'm not losing any fluid, so that leaves either air in the system, or the master cylinder. I bought a NEW master cylinder, to replace the one that was (I thought) bad (same symptoms)--so I think I may have eliminated the MC as the problem. I dunno.
When I try to lock them up (at speed), they don't lock up--though I do get smoke (and brake stink) blowing out of the front wheel wells. I'm going to strip and lube the calipers tonight, and see what happens.
Again, Thanks.
