95 dodge 5.9L Brakes PROBLEM w/ hard pressure!
hi i was wondering if anyone can help me. i was out plowing last night, residential, like 5 inches with an inch about of ice, and i got my truck in nov. the brakes were always spongy, and you heard it when you pressed the pedal like it sounded like they needed to be bled... i never got to do it
but i aint no mechanic but yesterday after a driveway my brake pedal go hard like i had to forced the pedal down, theres alot more pressure than before and its very hard to push down. i can stop but not on a dime
also when i press down the pedal it sounds like air is blowing, and when i let go it goes away, so im thinkin their a vacume leak!!????? or is My brake booster SHOT!? or if anyone has had this problem or know what it is!?
thanks
