Brake Problem!
 
http://share.shutterfly.com/osi.jsp?i=EeAMW7Rs5bNmjhg


Here is the picture of what appears to be broken! Can I get it identified?

Whats the skinny on the repair?

Appears to be the one-way check valve has snapped off from the line supplying vacuum to the power brake booster. As the line is factory heat-shrunk onto the valve and fittings, the proper fix is to replace the entire line, valve and fittings as an assembly.

Happy Motoring, Mark

Thanks, Mark!
 
I ordered the part from Phil. I made a "shade tree" fix by removing the "check valve" and connecting the two tubes with tubing and some hose clamps.

I don't think I'll do too too much damage until the part arrives?
