6637 problem??

Hey guys, so I just put in a new 6637 filter and everything went fine. Fired it up and put my foot on the brake pedal and I felt like it was massaging my foot! Vibrates quite a bit. Should I be concerned? Thanks.

Thats weird you did not mess around with any of the vacuum lines going to the brake booster? Or possibly the powersteering is low

Nope. Didn't touch a darn thing. Power steering fluid is good I just replaced the line a few months ago. I had the infamous explosion while turning in reverse. But yea the new filter works better for sure, just trying to figure out what the heck is with the brake pedal vibrating.

Hydro boost or Master cylinder maybe? The intake hose is touching. I should've gotten a 30 degree elbow instead of a straight 4" exhaust pipe. The filter is at an angle.

Yea mines very similar but it's touching. I'll deal with the shaking until Monday then I'll put an elbow in. I tried to configure it so it wouldn't touch but no luck.
