in your previous post you said you have a vacuum leak in the booster..

do u have a vacuum guage??

hook it up to the manifold line..

now observe the #...

now unhook the vacuum line going to the brake booster and plug it with your finger...

read guage.

if the guage reads higher then indeed you have a leak and it needs to be replaced.

Do'nt forget the Autozone booster is not 'correct' for you car. So keep the old one around, or better yet they can be repaired!
