stiff brake pedal
I was driving to work this morning in my '92 Ranger and the brake pedal got stiff, and hard to push/ stop... I'm gonna need a new booster or could the check valve be stuck? the pedal feels like it should ( right height and softness ) with the engine off..You don't know what you've got til it's gone

I didn't hear any hissing... I did however when the gasket for the check valve gave out 1 day.. but then I put in a new gasket and check valve and it was good again.. till this.. could the Napa valve be defective?You don't know what you've got til it's gone

You're welcome Mike, glad it worked out for you. Roger, it's taken a few years but my inventory of excess parts has shrunk a fair bit from 1 1/2 garage stalls to about an eight by eight space. ...
