baffled mechanic freind
stopped by a friends shop yesterday, they've been working on a f350 powerstroke diesel ( 97or 99 not sure which)
when they step on the pedal with the motor off theres plenty of pressure.
as soon as they start the engine and try to press the pedal again it goes to the floor, no pressure
there are no leaks.
they've replaced the entire and I mean entire brake system.
were talking booster, master cylinder twice, diaphragm that leads to the booster, lines, brake lines, calipers, rear cylinders, pads, shoes, basically you name it they've replaced it.
they removed the abs and spliced the line about the third day to no avail.
these fellas are seasoned pros that run a custom and repair shop. but their not too net savvy so I told em Id jump on here to ask.
thanks all for your time.
(heads back over to the 73-79 f150 section)
