After a few hours of troubleshooting my GMC 6500 grain truck I stumbled upon this video. It made me think to check simple solutions which turned up a plugged air filter/breather that took about 5 minutes to clear.

Interesting film. Now I know how my brake system funks. I must fix an broken vacum hose, then it works.

I love old military videos, unfortunately the quality 240 only. I understand in some parts but not the other (I have bad visual). "So, keep on road!" NO SIR!! I want to stay in front of my computer to study more xD...

my dad's isuzu truck with diesel engine has the vacuum pump coupled to the alternator...newer alternators without the vacuum pumps are cheaper...can we just drill a hole on the intake manifold ang tap the brakes vacuum line there...so we can use a cheaper alternator?

[@jezreelgonzales1729]

if its a diesel nope. there's no vacuum pressure in the intake manifold

This just has to be Mike Wallace of "60 Minutes" fame narrating this. Any way to find out? Sure sounds like him!
