glad to hear you got it sorted out...

I also made that mistake once of putting the brake booster line on backwards and the braking was horrible... I had no idea at the time about the check valve...

Glad to know I'm not the only one, Moon, haha. I was doing a DE swap, and I was using pieces from everywhere, and didn't think twice to check. Whoever decided to form it so it looks like it goes on both ways... meanie. lol...

Okay guys looks like my problem is resolved, thanks to all your support couldn't have figured it out without you... So i picked up a booster from the junk yard and I got a vac hose from the junkyard as well took out my old one didn't seem like it was pushing enough air out when i tested ... anyways i put in the new booster and the vac hose and everything worked perfectly pedal is just the way it suppose to be not too hard not too soft my braking is fine now the calipers don't jam and my first indication was that my idling is back to normal now ... so that was a big headache i got out of the way now onto smaller other things ... thanks everyone again.... now this thread is there for people who are having calipers jamming with idle issues to know... hope no one falls for the same ATF in the brake system like me though :D
