no it wont affect the steering. the only thing to affect the steering would be the pump, the steering box, the belt or lines. or possibly worn out mechanical steering components. like tie rods ball joints etc.
Yes, a leaking power brake booster can be dangerous. It can lead to reduced braking efficiency, increasing the stopping distance and potentially causing brake failure. Additionally, a vacuum leak from the booster can affect engine performance and lead to other mechanical issues. It’s essential to have a leaking brake booster inspected and repaired promptly for safety.
Power Sterring.
Sounds like the power brake booster has a vacuum leak.
no.
I would say a power brake booster or a brake booster would be the same.
Could be a vacuum leak in or at the power brake booster
yes
I assume you must have a diesel if you want to know where the vacumme pump is. In that case it is in front of your power sterring pump. Your power sterring pump bolts to it.
sorry I'm not sure how
If you have a power brake booster then there will be a vaccum line that runs to the brake booster on the firewall from the carburator. Check the booster for holes and broken fittings or buy a new booster. if no brake booster then brakes shouldn't affect vaccum
The brake booster is part of the power brake system.
