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.
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...
I have a 1953 seagrave fire truck, can the booster suck the brake from the system, no wheel cyl. shows leak but i have to keep filling the master cylinder, can the booster be rebuilt are is it to old ?
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?
great vid daniel. it helps us dummies understand how these work so we can drive our old ass trucks. thank you kindly from kansas.

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

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!
