Hi, I am leaking fluid from the joint between the Brake Master Cylinder and the Hydraulic Booster. I am not loosing any fluid from the Master Cylinder and I am from the power steering reservoir. This would indicate a faulty booster which is shown as not serviceable in the book. Has anyone done...

fest3er, what kind of oil leaks did you have? Normal age stuff or possibly from the bypass system and pressure? Sorry, hope you don't mind my asking

Thanks very much for this link! I have now got it bookmarked for further reference. It sounds like the pump will handle the bypass without problem as long as care is taken to verifly flow rates. Thanks to all for your comments. Personally I never doubted the capability but I have to do my...

Thanks Thomasmmr. That is a good place to start. Is there a preferred location to tap into the oil galley, such as the current sending unit? Or, does that need to be retained? I will look into that valve idea, sounds interesting. I do have a spot open on my A Pillar panel to install the...

I have heard the '97 12V oil pump does not have the reserve capacity to supply a bypass filter and the engine at the same time. Does anyone have any info on this? Thoughts are appreciated. Bruce:confused:

Thanks Bob4x4, Is this standard tubing possibly available at the local big rig shops or somewhere else? I have not seen anything like this at the local parts outlets.

The story I just read about these 19. 5's seems a pretty good deal overall. Where would these be available? What style of tread designs are available? I drive on a lot of construction sites with all types of difficulties and ever changing mud or rocks and trash. Where in central Indiana?
