early cars have issues with water seeping into the power brake booster. When this happens bad things happen to your braking capability. If you are lucky, like me, your brakes don't completely release and you realize you have an issue at stop lights when you don't have normal 'creep' when going forward from a complete stop. If you are not lucky you hit your brakes and keep going. There is a retrofit kit to correct this. I did it myself it was the most difficult job I did on the car especially since I had carpol tunnel. You can remove the vacuum line from the booster and stick your finger in to feel for water or dampness.
