Engine power and braking power bogged down at the same time?
Engine power and braking power bogged down at the same time?
Posted on 9/20/2024
Vacuum System Issues
: Many modern braking systems, especially those with power brakes, rely on engine vacuum to assist braking. If there's a vacuum leak or the engine isn't producing adequate vacuum due to a problem like a failing vacuum pump or a leak in the intake system, both engine power and braking performance could be affected.
Serpentine Belt Issues
: The serpentine belt drives various engine components, including the vacuum pump (if equipped) and alternator. If the belt is slipping or broken, it could impact engine performance and brake assist.
Engine Performance Problems
: If the engine isn’t running properly, it might struggle to produce sufficient power, which can also affect the operation of components dependent on engine performance, including the vacuum system that assists braking.
