Klaus,

Thanks for the reply. It hisses whenever the brake is released. I'm being conservative and assuming the whole booster needs to go.

On the transmission front, do you think I'm safe with having the bevel gear and torque converter replaced, or is the trans a time bomb too? What is the weak link in that system?

Vacuum leaks look to be common on these cars.

Its got 125K on it.

Good news on the O2 sensors, will try cleaning first.

The guy is being reasonable about the price given work needed. I think I can get it for $3,500 or so.
