problem #2

Lumina 6-cyl

  • miles
On a road test for a customer I lost the brakes, as it developed a hard pedal without power assist. The condition was intermittent. Upon investigation I discovered the vacuum hose from the back of the intake to the power booster was softened with oil contamination and had begun to collapse cutting off vac to the booster. I installed a new hose assembly but this came out of nowhere and could cause problems for any driver at any time. The vehicle was a 1995 Chevy Lumina 3.4 V6. Clearance is very tight where the hose runs. I think GM should go to a hard hose instead of a performed rubber hose. The engine was not leaking oil. This failure was heat an normal wear. Being these cars are 10 years old they are starting to fail. I suspect every vehicle with the 3.4 L engine will have this same problem not just the Lumina.

The engine backfired and blew off the power hose to the vaccum system, and that resulted in a very fast RPM (2000), and loss of power brakes. The hose does not have a clip and that causes the problem on the vehicle. This happens to all 95-98 Luminas.
