My brake pedal is really hard and hardly brakes. (Hard like when the car is turned off)

I bled my brakes twice and still the same. Could it be the brake booster? I know its not the Brake Master Cylinder because it holds pressure.

Help=Reps, Thanks IA

like punk mentioned more then likely vacumm to the BB. just double check you hooked up that vaccum line.

Thanks people. It could be that because I have some extra vaccum lines for blow-off valve and boost stuff. I figured it would be that but I'm too lazy to check. Reps

co-sign, I doubt thats it. But when someone says their too lazy to check, but finds the time to make a thread you really have no clue whats going on....

I know what im doing when it comes to working on my car and it's not a vacuum leak at all because the car doesn't idle high or weird.

I found out it was the plastic valve that's on the 3/4 vacuum line from the brake boosted to the intake manifold..

its called a check valve. it allow air to pass only 1 way.
