    I am almost positive you have a leak somewhere.

    Good luck with this.
    If i remove the vacuum line at the booster, it has the hunting idle (1500-2100 rpm fluctuation).

    As for the abs system, there are no codes what so ever, I have bled the entire system , it worked properly when I bled it.

    With the vacuum line at the booster removed, there is a harder pedal, almost what a normal one would feel like.

    And now , with the vacuum line at the booster connected , if I rev the car or am on the gas and then hit the brakes directly after , it has a normal pedal feel , but not normal stopping power.

    should I go get a few check valves from the junk yard? maybe a booster too?

    As for the bleeding being incorrect , I didn't use any sort of self bleeding tool , or pump the brakes. I just let them gravity bled. I did : (driver rear, passenger front, passenger rear, driver front) .

    I did the furthest from MC to closest thing , until I found a post from someone else on here stating to do (driver rear, passenger front, passenger rear, driver front). At that point I did it that way.

        I would definitely try another check valve, and get a friend to pump the brakes for you.

          I did not remember to grab a check valve while at the junkyard. I had someone help me bleed the whole system , and lube slide pins... still no luck. I will try the check valve from my sedan , and see what happens. If that don't help, I will attempt to adjust the push rod down at the brake pedal.

              No, it's being a big PITA with the brakes.

                fixed....for now

                I bled all four brakes once again , as well as the abs modulator. Seems to be better by far. I dunno how long this will last though.
