The under-car pipe won't leak but the hoses on each end might.
Occasionally, the big diaphragm inside the booster fails from oil being sucked in from
the engine. If this happens, be aware that there are no known spare parts-
Bendix-Italia stopped selling parts for their brake systems in response to a
lawsuit. Entire new brake boosters are available, however. And sometimes, the
plastic check-valve where the hose connects to the booster cracks. That is
replaceable. Good luck- J Deryke
