Leaking Master Cylinder 86 Camaro
My 86 Camaro is leaking brake fluid between the master cylinder and brake booster. I am going to replace the master cylinder but should I also replace the booster? The booster works fine.

If the booster has had brake fluid to get in it, it won't last long. Might be good now, but abut 2 days after you change the MC, the booster will then fail. That fluid EEEEEEETZ the rubber diaphragm.
Change em both out. You can get the pair at virtually any parts store. Not very $$$$ at all which is good.
