Brake problem
My 89 F 250 all of a sudden seems to have no power brakes. I can still stop (barely) but have to really stand on them.
My thinking is the power booster went out but before I throw parts at it I'd like some other opinions. Please give an old guy some help! I'd really appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

yup. common issue with diesels.
pull the vacuum fitting off the booster with engine running. put your finger over the hose. you should almost not be able to remove the hose from your finger.
