I have what seems to be a mystery to all of the mechanics in my area. I have a 1984 k20 with 6.2L diesel. The original hydroboost had a leak into the cab. Replaced with rebuilt unit. Brakes functioned fine for approximately 1000 miles. While the pickup was siting (not running) the accumulator exploded almost puncturing the hood. Second replacement was installed with new hoses from the power steering pump and return lines installed. Approximately 1000 miles again, accumulator explodes for a second time. Has anyone had this problem before or know of a fix?
