Question
my 1997 breeze brake peddle will get very hard for just min it has lost it power brakes the car is running fine when it happens hit the brake again and it is fine has done this 3 times only while driving on hwy have checked  vacuum lines to booster

Answer
Check vacuum hose to booster and if its ok,look at all other components,such as,rotors,pads,calipers.Check front and rear brakes to ensure they are ok then look finally at the booster itself.This will have to be inspected by a professional tech to be sure if it works or not.Brakes are not to be fooled with so its a must fix.
