i need some ideas please (brake issues)
 
i was not sure how to title this as im not entirely sure how to word my problem either. lol. But i will try as best as i can to make sense.

I have never encounter this before in a car or truck.

today when i was coming home from work every time i would press the brake pedal i could hear air wooshing. the pedal was not spongey or have any different play in it that i noticed. and then a few miles down the road the air wooshing was constant, but more noticeable when i would press the brake pedal.

i checked the brake fluid, and the vaccume line at the mater cylinder, and everything seemed fine, any thoughts?

Ditto on the vacuum booster. Fortunately they're not that expensive, and relatively easy to change.
