Master Power Brakes - Master Braker
The master cylinder was filled with DOT 3 brake fluid, then it and the brakes were bled, starting with the wheel furthest from the new brake unit. The system still had a bit of residual air, so another bleeding cycle was done to eliminate the hard pedal. A trip around the block revealed the new system's characteristics: the vacuum system's pedal is a little touchier than the Powermaster's, which took some getting used to. But overall the brakes grabbed harder than they ever had before, and the vacuum pump stayed off unless the brakes were applied. Even then, at speeds above 50 miles an hour the pump is barely audible. The question was: would this new system perform any better?
