Power Brake Booster Hoses, Pipes And Fittings
Check all pipes, hoses and fittings for leaks at regular intervals.
Make sure the fittings are tight. Make sure all clamps, clips and unions supporting
the pipes and hoses are in place and properly secured. Make sure all hoses
are installed in a matter that does not cause chafing or wear on the hoses.
Check for leaks by wiping the suspected area clean. Spotting leaking fluid
is easier when the suspected area in clean. When fluid leaks appear, tighten,
repair or replace nearby fittings and bolts.
