as u may know i just got a new motor installed but having problems with power brakes not having enough vacum at idle. my question is if i hook the pcv valve back up will that give me more vacum or do i need to get a vacum canister.

 

I had to get a canister, it works well...

 

Is the check valve/filter looking deal bad on your line from the intake to the booster? How many inches are you pulling at idle?

 

valve worked on last motor. and im not sure what the vacum is at idle dont have the tool to check

 

Vac guage avail at any parts store for under $10. Might try increasing timing some, and setting isle adjustment lower to compensate idle - I did this on my car to get more vacuum.

 

the guy who broke it in st the timing 36 total

 

So I ordered a cannister from summit. Instructions say about keeping the vacum brake filter if equiped. Is that the black thing or is that the check valve. If check valve do I need to keep it in the line

 

Keep checkvalve/filter inline, clean w/brakecleaner if needed, they do get dirty over time....
