Another Brake question
I have noticed that I have a slight leak between the master cylinder and the booster, not gushing or anything, just enough to see on the bottom of the booster. Is there a gasket between the two that needs replacing; or, is this fluid leaking by the piston in the cylinder and the whole MC needs changing?
Thanks.

Now I will say this before I reply....I dont have much experiece with the ranger in the braking department......
But....
I have done master cyl and booster swaps on my chevy, my parents escort, my old toyota, and countless different chevy's.......and none of them have a gasket between the cyl and booster. What wears out are the o-rings around the piston, causing a slow leak and a mushy pedal. There may be a rubber spacer thing, but no actual seal. You problem might also be caused by a bad fitting, you aughtta check all those out as well, so you can X those off the list of things to check.
