drove to Gatwick and back.


Without the benefit of power brakes!

Took my oldest boy and his girlfriend to catch the plane to Ibiza. On the way there's a 'pop' and my brake pedal goes solid. Pulled over and had a look, the L shaped connector for the vacum hose to the booster had somehow blown the cap off the end. You could hear the sucking noise.

Of course i'd just taken the duct tape out of the car and nothing else to cover the hole, so just kept driving. Fortunately it was 3am so no traffic (stop/start traffic would have killed my leg).


I'll use the one off the Wrangler for now, but if anyone has a spare i'd appreciate it.

Got a pic of the bit you need? Might have one.
