I had the master cylinder replaced, a set of braded lines installed and the whole brake system bled a few months ago. I have been out of town for a few weeks and when I hopped in this weekend, I heard the dreaded sound of a bad brake booster. I have a feeling that the old MC leaked some fluid into the booster thus eating a hole in the diaphram leading to this lovely hissing sound every time I pressed the brake pedal.
On to my question: can I replace the booster without disconnecting the MC and rebleeding the lines? I read a few places that it's possible, but I figured that you guys have done this operation at least once. Any input is greatly appreciated.
