Affects Ford B Series, F Series, 800, 700 · 1984 — about 551 vehicles.

The hazard

On certain vehicles, the hydraulic brake booster supply hoses are located too near the exhaust manifold heat shrouds and may be susceptible to chaging and/ or heat damage. This could cause the hose to wear and eventually rupture resulting in a loss of pump fluid. Should this occur during vehicle operation, there is a potential for increased stopping distance due to the loss of pump fluid and for an engine compartment fire resulting from fluid being sprayed on the exhaust manifold.
