my booster has this odd one way valve on it. do i need it on? or can i pipe straight onto the manifold. i don't seem to be getting much suction with this valve on. soo booster-----pipe-----<valve>---pipe------(manifold plug) do i need a valve filter thing between the manifold & the booster? do any of your cars have anything like this or is a pipe straight in ok? thanks.

There MUST be a one way valve (check valve) in the line to the booster. On most it is inside the elbow where the hose goes onto the booster. |

that's what i thought the one way valvle would be at the bottom of the booster right? then a hose straight to the manifold? so where that right angle plug fits into the booster would a one way valve right? so it seems like it has 2 valves then? |

i have bleed up the system & the pedal seems to brake but i'm still having to push it pretty hard & it's only doing soft braking takes a while to brake. would that mean air in the lines still? i will get a pro to check it all out but would be nice to sort it out my self.

Hi NG. is the one way valve an in-line type? You might have it in back-to-front. |
