Re: power brake booster location

The brake booster is the large round drum-shaped item between the brake master cylinder (fluid reservoir) and the firewall.

May I ask why you need to know the location of your brake booster?

Re: power brake booster location

The vacuum hose should be connected to the front surface of the brake booster with a rather large (as far as vacuum hoses go) 90 degree adapter. If the hose is connected there, follow it back to the vacuum port it connects to and make sure it is connected properly and the vacuum hoses are in good condition, not dry rotted and cracked. There should be a vacuum diagram sticker under the hood which will help you trace the hoses.
