Car stalling after new brake booster
1990 Camaro RS 3.1 V6.
I had my brake booster go bad on me a few days ago. Car was running fine just hard to brake. Ended up having to use it to get to a parts store on the way there started getting stalling when braking, thought it was the brake booster just getting read to fully die, so as I braked I would put it in neutral so the RPMs wouldn't nose dive as I came to a stop. Got back home and replaced the brake booster. Now I got good braking but the stalling is still happening. Any idea what is causing it?

Vacuum leak? How's the one-way valve between the booster and the engine?

Agree with Atilla. Did you disconnect the large vacuum line for the brake booster and forget to reconnect?
