Re: Vacuum canister

Don't mean to be rude, but did you troubleshoot your brakes?

Re: Vacuum canister

It can be mounted anywhere. I had mine mounted on the driver's strut tower before I swapped over to manual brakes. You can see it in the picture. I have a summit sticker on it.

Keep in mind these cans are just a band-aid. I only got a couple good pushes of brake pedal before I was out of stored up vac. Sitting at red lights I had to put trans up in park and then back down in gear when they went green.
