Re: [Chrysler300] vacuum power brake assist?

[Bill Leahy <bleahy@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

after trying all the things various 300 club members suggested / i 
believe the vacuum pressure is low but it is working (i put a guage on 
it).

on the gauge i used, it had a reading that said:  the pressure was 1/2 
of normal; possible problems... late valve timing or check for leak on 
intake manifold or heat riser.

so first i looked for a vacuum leak and found one of the intake 
manifold bolts was loose...and that helped a bit...and the rough idle 
improved.

i also cleaned the check valve on the reservoir tank.

the brake pedal goes down easier now...not being so firm.

so there is progress.

thanks to all who submitted info / i will report any more successes.

billlllll in hot hot hot kennewick washington / it has to be over 100 
today
