I'm thinking that means that there is not an obstruction in the line anywhere,
since the vacuum pump pulls fluid through the line just fine, put pushing on
the pedal doesn't produce a squirt of fluid like it should. That's what makes
me think the problem is in the MC.

Bud,
Thanks for the reply. The light in my dash doesn't work, so no help there.
However, I will check the PDWA. I don't really want to get into the MC again
if I don't have to.
