I thought Scott might ask about this since it is his car. He hasn't, so I will.
The car is a 1966 Cruiser with power brakes and a V/8 engine.
When pressing down on the brakes the idle (when in park) will increase. Scott has mentioned that when he comes to a stop sign it will also cause the engine to rev up a bit.
None of my Studebakers have power brakes and my experience with other makes has me thinking that the booster may be bad. Scott has also mentioned at times the brakes have been "touchy" a bit hard then will grab.
I have checked the fittings and hose and all seems to be in good shape with no vacumn loss.
Am I correct in thinking the booster may be in need of a rebuild?
