It depends. Where did the codes come from? Many times they are generic, but they can also often be given to specific Web sites or affiliates. If the code was given to a specific affiliate, then it might only be valid for them and should not be shared. You might want to see if any of these

My first thought was that the Master Cylinder was bad. Even though it is new, it could be. Or maybe you need to adjust the plunger/pedal? It has been way too long for me, but I had the opposite problem of the brakes applying themselves after a while until the wheels locked. That was from the

I didn't realize that there was a different master cylinder for power brakes. I bought the one I have on the car before I thought about adding the power assist. Sounds like its worth a try. Think I have a original 70 master cylinder in the shed. Maybe I will try my hand at a rebuild. Thanks,

A couple of questions. There are two types of masters. One for the long push rod and one for the short. If your booster has the short rod and your M/C is a long style you are not stroking the M/C. Also, did you bench bleed the M/C? This is necessary to get good pedal. One more, there should be

Dan, The rods are approx. 1 different in length. If you have a short rod, less than an inch in length your hole depth in the M/C should be the same. The only problem comes if your M/C has the deep hole, more than an inch and the booster the short. Always bench bleed the M/C. You need to be sure
