Hydra boost problems
A friend of mine is having problems with his hydra boost, mainly leaks I think, has anyone rebuilt / resealed one or is a remanufactured unit best?

He has fluid in the cab, looks like where the rod from the brake pedal goes into the MC (his words), I suggested a remanufactured unit but he's trying to save money & he's got the time.

Really need to check power steering fluid level as well as sample the sperm count. If it's brake fluid..........or power steering fluid/atf. That's the daddy.

Thanks for the pictorial & comments, from his explanation I'm pretty sure that it's power steering fluid, I've talked him into signing up here as he has other issues with the truck & the collective knowledge here is fantastic. He's already had a new transmission & various sensor problems, the truck still isn't right & it needs to be reliable for towing his race truck (It's a twin turbo Chevy, but don't hold that against him lol!)
