This could save me a lot of money if this could be possible. My '73 Swinger is factory equipped with power front disc/ rear drum brakes. The master cylinder needs to be refilled about every 100 miles of city driving. There is no fluid leaking by the wheels or anywhere else so I'm assuming my MC is leaking back into the booster.
My 360 crate motor has 1000 miles on it. Under hard acceleration, I get blue smoke out the exhaust but I never have to add engine oil.
Here's my question: Is it possible that the vacuum assist line is sucking brake fluid out of the booster and into the intake system?
The car is in cold storage at the moment. This will be the first thing I look at when/if it ever gets warm out.
