i have an 85 z28. when you push on the brakes they hold for a min then you here a sucking noise under the dash and the brakes fail. is this a vacuum leak?. and if so where does the vacuu line run under there. thanks

Re: 85 z brake problem

sounds like your booster is leaking. no line under the dash, the noise should be coming from where the brake push rod goes into the booster.
